BATTERY CHARGE/SOLAR ARRAY CONTROLLER FOR A RESIDENTIAL-SIZE PHOTOVOLTAIC POWER SYSTEM

摘要

A controller has been designed to meet the initial requirements of an off-peak, utility-interactive solar photovoltaic power system now undergoing tests at MIT Lincoln Laboratory's Photovoltaic System Test Facility in Concord, Massachusetts. A physical description of the controller, an explana¬tion of the control algorithm, a circuit description and the theory of operation are presented.
