The output of photovoltaic (PV) array is affected by the environmental factors such as irradiation and temperature, so an effective maximum power point tracking (MPPT) method of PV array is necessary. In this paper, a modified perturb and observe (MPO) method is proposed to achieve MPPT for a PV system and to improve the shortcomings of prior methods. Comparing with a typical perturb and observe (P&O) MPPT method, the MPO efficiency is improved in transient state by the proposed MPPT as theoretical prediction.

The extensive usage of solar has extended the opportunity of research to increase the efficiency of PV module. Maximum Power Point Tracking technique plays an important role. In P & O and Incremental conductance the power produced is less. In this paper a Fuzzy based P & O and Fuzzy based Incremental Conductance MPPT techniques are presented to extract the maximum power from the photovoltaic system by considering the dynamic variation in irradiations and temperature also. Here the 100 kW PV array is considered and it is connected to the utility grid via a DC-DC boost converter of 500volts with a 3 phase three level voltage source converter. The result is obtained by the MAT LAB Simulink and the same is appraised with the traditional P & O and Incremental conductance. The PV System produces the maximum power by the application of Fuzzy based incremental Technique compared to conventional methods.

The advanced reactive power regulation is planned to direct the highest and the voltages at least point of regular pairing inside the cutoff points set up in grid codes for consistent operation. These work displays a regulating technique to which the grid associated PV system meaning to direct the  power of both active and reactive infused to the electrical system amid the voltage faults that are uneven in nature. Fuzzy controller is propel controller which is for the most part appropriate for the personal fundamental guidance tool. which additionally gave the electronic system operation by the master choice. The reference of active power  is acquired from a Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) calculation. The advanced force methodology creates the necessary reference currents that forced by the grid-tied inverter from the coveted P and Q powers and the deliberate voltage supply. In unequal voltage sags, positive and negative sequence KVAr are consolidated to adaptable boost and even out the phase voltages; maximum phase voltage is controlled below as far as possible and the base phase voltage simply over as far as possible. The plan is approved to a solitary step PV system where the currents that are  regulated by means of prescient control. By using the fuzzy controller for a nonlinear system which permit the decrease for the questionable impact in the system which control and impeccably enhance the effectiveness. Results demonstrating the execution of the procedure are introduced amid uneven  sags and swells.

In this paper, a novel incremental conductance (INC) maximum power point tracking (MPPT) method based on extension theory is developed to make full use of photovoltaic (PV) array output power. The proposed method can adjust the step size to track the PV array’s maximum power point (MPP) automatically. Compared with the conventional fixed step size INC method, the presented approach is able to effectively improve the dynamic response and steady state performance of a PV system simultaneously. A theoretical analysis and the design principle of the proposed method are described in detail. Some simulation results are performed to verify the effectiveness of the proposed MPPT method.

To utilize maximum solar energy, maximum power point tracking (MPPT) control is much important for PV system. The paper presents a new MPPT method based on adaptive predictive algorithm which is superior to traditional Perturbation and Observation (P&O) method. PV output power is predicted to improve the tracking speed and deduce the possibility of misjudgment of increasing or decreasing the PV output voltage. Because PV output power can be obtained directly, close loop can be established so as to achieve a precise prediction. Simulations and experiments prove that proposed MPPT control can track the maximum power point rapidly, and the system can operate steadily with this MPPT method.

In the several last years, numerous Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) methods for photovoltaic (PV) systems have been proposed. An MPPT strategy is necessary to ensure the maximum power efficiency provided to the load from a PV module that is subject to external environmental perturbations such as radiance, temperature and partial shading. In this paper, a new MPPT technique is presented. Our approach has the novelty that it is a MPPT algorithm with a dynamic hysteresis model incorporated. One of the most cited Maximum Power Point Tracking methods is the Perturb and Observer algorithm since it is easily implemented. A comparison between the approach presented in this paper and the known Perturb and Observer method is evaluated. Moreover, a new PV-system platform was properly designed by employing low cost electronics, which may serve as an academical platform for further research and developments. This platform is used to show that the proposed algorithm is more efficient than the standard Perturb and Observer method.

This paper deals with analysis, modeling, and simulation of a Photovoltaic (PV) system with an intelligent Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) controller based on fuzzy logic and to compare the dynamic performances: rapidity and stability of a fuzzy controller with the traditional controller based on the “Perturb and Observe” algorithm (P&O). The system is simulated under Simulink/Matlab environment. The simulation results show that the fuzzy MPPT controller is faster and more stable during abrupt changes in irradiation values.

Three main factors which affect the efficiency of any Photovoltaic system are, the efficiency of the Photovoltaic pane used, efficiency of the inverter used and efficiency of the maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithm used. MPPT techniques are widely used in the Photovoltaic (PV) system to extract the maximum power from the Photovoltaic system. MPPT aims that in any environmental conditions i.e for any irradiation or temperature, maximum possible energy is extracted from PV systems. In this paper, Perturb & Observe (P&O), Incremental conductance techniques of MPPT are implemented and analyzed. On the basis of the output voltage, power, current, duty cycle and efficiency of the boost converter, comparison of these techniques has been done. To extract the maximum power from the Photovoltaic system, Inverted-V Method has been developed and compared with Perturb & Observe, Incremental conductance method with the help of MATLAB Simulink software. In this paper, it has been concluded that Inverted V methods has more efficiency and performs better as compared to the other two methods. This paper could be beneficial as a quick reference for MPPT users and future research application for PV system.

This paper presents a novel adaptive neural network (ANN) for maximum power point tracking (MPPT) in photovoltaic (PV) systems under variable working conditions. The ANN-based MPPT model includes two separate NNs for PV system identification and control. NNs are trained by using of a novel back propagation algorithm in pre/post control phases. Because of online optimal performance of NNs, the proposed method, not only overcome the common drawbacks of the conventional MPPT methods, but also gives a simple and a robust MPPT scheme. Simulation results, which carried on MATLAB, show that proposed controller is the most effective in comparison with conventional MPPT approaches.
