Abstract

Performance of a SPV system is dependent on temperature, array configuration, solar insolation, shading etc. The conversion of solar energy using SPV modules,change in insolation conditions which severely affect the efficiency and output power of the modules. Improvement in the efficiency of conversion of solar energy can be done by tracking the maximum power point of a PV module. Various types of MPPT charge controllers are available in the market. A dc-dc converter is an important component of a SPV system as it acts as an interface between the load and the SPV module. These dc-dc converters enhance the performance of the MPPT algorithms leading to an improvement in the overall efficiency of the SPV system. This paper presents the modeling and simulation of one diode equivalent circuit of solar photovoltaic module using MATLAB/SIMULINKTM along with the boost converter which gives an efficiency of 93.29%.
