 ABSTRACT

• Global energy demand is increasing

exponentially.
• This will create global energy Crisis in
near future.
• The solution of these issues is seen in
renewable energy sources.
• Solar energy is considered one of the
major sources of renewable energy.

 INTRODUCTION
• Solar photovoltaic (PV) cells are used to
convert solar energy into regulated
electrical energy using power electronics
converter.
• These solar PV cells exhibit nonlinear
characteristics and very low efficiency.
• The characteristic of solar cells become
more complex under changed atmospheric
condition.

 Continued..
• Efficiency of solar cell is less, it only
converts 30-40% of energy incident on it to
electrical energy.
• Efficiency of solar cell increased by a
technique called maximum power point
tracking.
• By installing this technique we can get
additional 20-30% of extra energy.

 MAXIMUM POWER POINT
TRACKING (MPPT) CONTROLLER
• The role of the MPPT is to match panel
output power with load requirements.
• The mechanism is based on the principle
of impedance matching between source
and load, for maximum power transfer
between load and PV array at different
operating points.

 PERTURB & OBSERVE
(hill climbing)
• Perturb & Observe (P&O) is the simplest
method.
• In this we use only one sensor, that is the
voltage sensor, to sense the PV array
voltage.
• Hill climbing method fail under rapid
environment change conditions.

 CONCLUSION
• According to Maximum Power Transfer
theorem.
• the power output of a circuit is maximum
when the Thevenin impedance of the
circuit (source impedance) matches with
the load impedance.
• By using solar panel and boost converter
with MPPT algorithm an average efficiency
of 89% has been achieved.
