Abstract

Photovoltaic system is growing rapidly in today's world. In the recent trend PV industries are gaining more importance but due to its dependence on several factors the actual power supplied from the PV to the load is not sufficient. Thus in order to make full utilization of PV system effective tracking is very necessary. In this paper an improved detail MPPT technique is demonstrated. The duty cycles obtained from this method are analyzed to get a better duty ratio so that the system can operate at peak power point irrespective of any load condition. The detailed work is carried out in MATLAB for resistive load. Therefore MPPT controller with DC-DC converter is considered to carry out effective load matching and make the PV system operate at MPP point. There are various MPPT methods for PV system using soft computing techniques. The results found in this work shows that the PV standalone system using the improved MPPT technique give better performance and higher efficiency i.e 98.88% in comparison to other existing methods.
