An Efficient Solar Power Conversion System

The Photo Voltaic systems have major parts viz. PV cell, converter, Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT)system. In this book all works are based on MATLAB¿ simulations. The PV has been designed in a way, that number of series and parallel cells can be changed easily just by changing the value. To select a suitable converter first the designed PV has been simulated with various converters, then SEPIC came out as best for this application. Then selection of MPPT techniques has been performed, using PV and SEPIC converter some popular and most efficient techniques has been simulated, out of all MPPT algorithms Incremental Conductance came out as best, then this algorithm has been modified to improve system performance for this scenario. As an aerial view of this work, one best suited statement will be, overall system performance can be improves drastically by improving performance of all components.
