The use of renewable energy sources such as solar and wind energy can be extended to include residential and transportation applications due to environmental benefits. The main objective of this paper the solar energy system will be equipped with two type of converters DC/DC and DC/AC. The DC/DC boost converter is generally driven by the MPPT technique. We need to design a single controller for both the converters that would meet the power requirements and enhance its efficiency. To enhance the active power output by utilizing the designed controller for both the converters. The power enhancement would be done by utilizing a hybrid integrated constrained particle swarm optimization technique that is also modified to meet the MPPT requirements of the solar energy system. the result of The single controller has resulted in the following key improvements. The algorithm was first incorporated with the MPPT algorithm for the boost converter which has improved the DC voltage profile from 500 V to 595 V. The active power output from the system has enhanced to 113KW from 100Kw which is also stable as compared to the system having dual controllers for the converters. The PSO algorithm is so constrained in a manner such that the output voltage and current distortion has also reduced. The voltage output distortion level from the hybrid constrained PSO controllers was found to be 0.20% which is less than 0.26% of the system having dual controllers Also the THD level in the current output from the hybrid PSO integrated algorithm was reduced to 0.16% from 3.36% in the solar PV system modeled with dual controllers.

Worldwide renewable energy resources, especially solar energy, are growing dramatically in view of energy shortage and environmental concerns. Large-scale solar photovoltaic (PV) systems are typically connected to medium voltage distribution grids, where power converters are required to convert solar energy into electricity in such a grid-interactive PV system. This study are designing of solar energy system in MATLABSIMULINK environment which can be integrated with the grid for its efficient operation. The grid integration is necessary to ace the system reliable under various environmental conditions. Enhancing the DC input voltage to the inverter so that in its aspect the AC output from the inverter is also enhanced. And designing of a universal bridge inverter and AI based intelligent control for it such that it enhances the power output from the solar PV system.

<span lang="EN-US">In this work, the fickleness of solar energy can be overcome by using Maximum Power Point Tracking algorithm (MPPT). Perturb and Observation (P&amp;O) MPPT algorithm accomplish fast the maximum power point for rapid change of environmental conditions such as irradiance intensity and temperature. The MPPT algorithm applied to solar PV system keep the boost converter output constant. Output from boost converter is taken to three phase impedance-source inverter with RL load and grid system. Impedance-source inverter performs the transformation of variable DC output of the solar PV system in to near sinusoidal AC output. This near sinusoidal AC output consecutively is served to the RL load first and then to grid system. The simulation is carried out in matlab/simulink platform both for RL load and grid system and the simulation results are experimentally validated for RL load arrangement only.</span>

Net Energy Metering

Malaysia has moved forward by promoting the use of renewable energy such as solar PV to the public to reduce dependency on fossil fuel-based energy resources. Due to the concern on high electricity bill, Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP) is keen to install solar PV system as an initiative for energy saving program to its buildings. The objective of this paper is to technically and economically evaluate the different sizing of solar PV system for university buildings under the Net Energy Metering (NEM) scheme. The study involves gathering of solar energy resource information, daily load profile of the buildings, sizing PV array together with grid-connected inverters and the simulation of the designed system using PVsyst software. Based on the results obtained, the amount of solar energy generated and used by the load per year is between 5.10% and 20.20% from the total annual load demand. Almost all solar energy generated from the system will be self-consumed by the loads. In terms of profit gained, the university could reduce its electricity bill approximately between a quarter to one million ringgit per annum depending on the sizing capacity. Beneficially, the university could contribute to the environmental conservation by avoiding up to 2,000 tons of CO2 emission per year.

Like all modes of transportation that use fossil fuels, ships produce carbon dioxide emissions that significantly contribute to global climate change and ocean acidification. Additionally, ships release other pollutants that also contribute to the problem and exacerbate climate change. Considering the large volume of ships on the high seas, ship emissions pose a significant threat to human health. The ocean is exposed to vast amounts of sunrays and has a great potential to be explored by the maritime sector and green power industry. Solar energy hybrid assisted power to support auxiliary power for the instruments on board the vessel is explored in a UMT vessel. The vessel that is used in this case study is Discovery XI, which is a 16.50 meter diving boat owned by University Malaysia Terengganu. The study explores the feasibility of using solar energy as a supporting power for marine vessel auxiliaries. The reduction of fuel usage after installing the solar PV system on the boat is determined, as well as an economic analysis. The power requirement for the vessel’s electrical system is estimated. The fuel and money saved is also estimated for comparison purposes of the vessel using the solar PV system and the vessel without the PV system. Economic analyses are performed, the Annual Average Cost (AAC) between a vessel using solar PV system and a vessel without solar PV system is estimated, and the period of the return of investment for the vessel with solar PV system is also estimated. The use of a photovoltaic solar system to assist the boat power requirement will benefit the environment through Green House Gas (GHG) reduction, and the use of solar as a supporting alternative energy could cut the cost of boat operation through fuel savings.

Vector Modulation

For energy systems in remote and remote communities, an autonomous energy system based on renewable energy can be a particularly interesting and economically advantageous solution, since the expansion of the network is often impractical due to economic and technical constraints. In this research work, we designed a hybrid solar PV system with Wind energy system in as to enhance its output capacity before its integration with the grid. Also the system is integrated with a super capacitor model for handling the change in the power demand of the system. The inverter has been modeled with Vector modulation technique which has resulted in more smooth and better output result when used in combination with DC output voltage. It was concluded that magnitude of active power output is better from the system having inverter with vector modulation control as compared to the system having inverter with simple pulse modulation control.  While calculating the RMS value of the active power it was found to be approximately 5000 VA and less pulsating than that of power output from the inverter having Pulse Modulation Control. Also computational methodology of the proposed modulation technique is very easy and the technique can be applied to multilevel inverter with any number of levels.

<p>At present, solar energy is perceived to be one of the world’s contributive energy sources. Holding characteristics such as inexhaustible and non-polluting, making it as the most prominent among renewable energy (RE) sources. The application of the solar energy has been well-developed and used for electricity generation through Photovoltaic (PV) as the harvesting medium. PV cells convert heat from the sun directly into the electricity to power up the electric loads. Solar PV system is commonly built in a rural area where it cannot be powered up by the utility grid due to location constrains. In order to avoid the electricity fluctuation because of unsteady amount of solar radiation, PV solar hybrid is the efficient solution for rural electrifications. This paper presents a review on optimised Hybrid Solar-PV Diesel system configurations installed and used to power up off grid settlements at various locations worldwide.</p>
