A Lipschitz Optimization-Based MPPT Algorithm for Photovoltaic System Under Partial Shading Condition

Under partial shading conditions (PSC), most traditional maximum power point tracking (MPPT) techniques may not adopt GP (global peak). These strategies also often take a considerable amount of time to reach a full power point (MPP). Such obstacles can be eliminated by the use of metaheuristic strategies. This paper shows, in partial shading conditions, the MPPT technique for the photovoltaic system using the Bat Algorithm (BA). Simulations have been performed in the MATLAB ®/Simulink setting to verify the efficacy of the proposed method. In MPPT applications, the results of the simulations emphasize the precision of the proposed technique. The algorithm is also simple and efficient, on a low-cost microcontroller, it could be implemented. Hardwar in loop (HIL) validation is performed, with a Typhoon HIL 402 setup.

Optimal energy extraction under partial shading conditions from a photovoltaic (PV) array is particularly challenging. Conventional techniques fail to achieve the global maximum power point (GMPP) under such conditions, while soft computing techniques have provided better results. The main contribution of this paper is to devise an algorithm to track the GMPP accurately and efficiently. For this purpose, a ten check (TC) algorithm was proposed. The effectiveness of this algorithm was tested with different shading patterns. Results were compared with the top conventional algorithm perturb and observe (P&O) and the best soft computing technique flower pollination algorithm (FPA). It was found that the proposed algorithm outperformed them. Analysis demonstrated that the devised algorithm achieved the GMPP efficiently and accurately as compared to the P&O and the FPA algorithms. Simulations were performed in MATLAB/Simulink.

Continuous Power

In India, solar energy meets consumer energy demand and majority of the plants are grid connected. Solar power is mainly depending on two factors, which are sun ray’s incident angle and change of environment conditions. The Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) of photovoltaic (PV) module is necessary to maximize the extraction of PV power under partial shading conditions. The main aim of this paper is to highlight the design and implementation of 5MW solar plant with different power tracking techniques. In addition, the detailed explanation of various materials used to design the PV module is illustrated. This paper also describes the two types of solar rating panels that are used to get high power conversion efficiency as well as continuous power supply along with that the plant cost, monthly and yearly power production and corresponding efficiency is calculated.
