Maximum power point tracking is a method employed to produce the utmost power available from the photovoltaic module. To date, many algorithms for maximum power point tracking technique had been stated, every with its own capabilities. In this paper, a Luo converter with high-voltage conversion gain is employed to track photovoltaic panels at maximum power and to step up the voltage to a higher level. This work also aims to validate the performance of the maximum power point tracking system with Luo converter which utilizes incremental conductance techniques. Space vector modulation and sinusoidal pulse width modulations are the control techniques employed to control the three-phase voltage source converter. In order to measure the overall performance indices of the proposed system, a simulation is carried out in MATLAB / Simulink environment.

The photovoltaic panel is characterized by a unique point called the maximum power point (MPP) where the panel produces its maximum power. However, this point is highly influenced by the weather conditions and the fluctuation of load which drop the efficiency of the photovoltaic system. Therefore, the insertion of the maximum power point tracking (MPPT) is compulsory to track the maximum power of the panel. The approach adopted in this paper is based on combining the strengths of two maximum power point tracking techniques. As a result, an efficient maximum power point tracking method is obtained. It leads to an accurate determination of the MPP during different situations of climatic conditions and load. To validate the effectiveness of the proposed MPPT method, it has been simulated in matlab/simulink under different conditions.

The high increase of renewable energy sources and the increment of distributed generation in the electrical grid has made them complex and of variable parameters, causing potential stability problems to the PI controllers. In this document, a control strategy for power injection to the electrical system from photovoltaic plants through a voltage source inverter two-level-type (VSI-2L) converter is proposed. The algorithm combines a current-based maximum power point-tracking (Current-Based MPPT) with model predictive control (MPC) strategy, allowing avoidance of the use of PI controllers and lowering of the dependence of high-capacitive value condensers. The sections of this paper describe the parts of the system, control algorithms, and simulated and experimental results that allow observation of the behavior of the proposed strategy.
