dsPIC33 Based Control for PV-Grid System with a\ud Buck-Boost MPPT

摘要

The use of solar energy is very important due to the fossil based energy crisis. Rapid progress in\udPV technologies has contributed to its applications. There are many PV based power plants built around\udthe world. Maximum Power Point Trackers (MPPT) take significant role in operating PV modules to\udproduce their maximum power. They are implemented by using choppers to match the load resistance and\udthe PV resistance. Recently, integration between PV modules and grids is more popular due to their\udadvantages. The PV-Grid system can be single stages, two stages or any other types and all of them use\udPWM (pulse width modulation) converters as their cores. In this paper, a PV-Grid System using buck-boost\udchopper as MPPT is analyzed. Power generated by PV modules is transferred to the grid by using an\udinverter that operated as a controlled current source so the complexity can be reduced. Finally, the\uddsPIC33 based control scheme for such a PV-Grid System was made as a laboratory scaled-prototype to\udverify the analysis and simulations.
