Solar energy is a potential energy source in India. A photovoltaic is a efficient way to cure the energy in a huge amount and keep to gather that kind of energy for future, and the PV must have good efficiency. The maximum power point tracking (MPPT) is a process that tracks one maximum power point from array input, in which the ratio varies between the voltage and current delivered to get the most power it can. Several algorithms have been developed for extracting maximum power. To increase its efficiency many MPPT techniques are used. Incremental conductance is one of the important techniques in this system and because of its higher steady-state accuracy and environmental adaptability it is a widely implemented tracked control strategy. This research was aimed to explore the performance of a maximum power point tracking system that implements the Incremental Conductance (IC) method. The IC algorithm was designed to control the duty cycle of the Buck-Boost converter and to ensure the MPPT work at its maximum efficiency. From the simulation, the IC method shows better performance and also has a lower oscillation.

This paper presents the modeling and simulation of the electrical operation of a photovoltaic (PV) system. A DC-DC boost converter was chosen for the regulation of the output voltage at the peak power point while also providing a constant voltage. Maximum Power Point Tracker (MPPT) control that allows extraction of maximum available power from the photovoltaic (PV) panel has been included. The maximum efficiency is achieved when PV works at its maximum power point which depends on insolation and temperature. Since the insolation and temperature always change with time, a PV system which able to track the maximum power point needs to be developed to produce more energy. This research was aimed to explore the performance of a maximum power point tracking system which implements Incremental Conductance (IC) method. The IC algorithm was designed to control the duty cycle of Boost converter and to ensure the MPPT control work at its maximum efficiency. The simulation results obtained with Matlab / Simulink show the instantaneous oscillation of the operating point of the photovoltaic module around the MPP independently to weather changes, the proper functioning of the converter which provides a voltage at its output greater than that supplied by the PV generator, (a yield of the order of 90%) and the low power losses supplied by this module (less than 10%) allowed to conclude that the PV system simulated during this work was working properly and was satisfactory

Efisiensi konversi energi yang rendah menjadi masalah utama padaupembangkit listrikutenagausurya (PLTS). Makalah ini membahas tentang implementasi metode maximum power point tracking (MPPT) dengan algoritma incremental conductance (IC) pada sistem panel surya dengan kapasitas 100 Wattpeak (Wp) yang bertujuan untuk mendapatkan daya keluaran yang paling optimal dari panel surya. Sistem dibangun dengan menggunakan konverter DC/DC buck-boost dan mikrokontroler sebagai pengolah algoritma MPPT serta pusat kendali sistem. Mikrokontroler akan mengontrol duty cycle dari konverter buck-boost dan memastikan bahwa panel surya selalu beroperasi pada kondisi titik daya maksimum dengan menggunakan algoritma IC. Hasil pengujian menunjukkan bahwa penggunaan metode MPPT dengan algoritma IC pada sistem panel surya 100 Wp dapat memaksimalkan daya keluaran dari panel surya sebesar 56%-94% dibandingkan dengan penggunaan panel surya secara langsung tanpa menggunakan MPPT.

The partial shading of photovoltaic (PV) modules due to clouds or blocking objects, such as buildings or tree leaves, is a common problem for photovoltaic systems. To address this, maximum power point tracking (MPPT) is implemented to find the global maximum power point (GMPP). In this paper, a new hybrid MPPT is proposed that combines a modified grasshopper optimization algorithm (GOA) with incremental conductance (IC). In the first stage, the proposed modified GOA is implemented to find a suitable tracking area where the GMPP is located. Then the system moves to the second stage by implementing IC to get the correct GMPP. IC is a fast-performing and reliable algorithm. By combining GOA and IC, the proposed method can find the GMPP accurately with a short tracking time. Various experimental results show that the proposed method yields the highest tracking efficiency and lowest tracking time compared to some of the state-of-the-art MPPT algorithms, such as particle swarm and modified firefly optimizations.
