MODELING OF A STANDALONE SOLAR PHOTOVOLATIC (PV) GENERATION SYSTEM

Abstract

This brief discusses the Modelling of a Standalone solar Photovolatic (PV) generation system. In this work the simulation of the PV system in open loop mode is carried out in MATLAB/Simulink environment and the real time hardware implementation has also been done. The PV panel output is fed to an inverter which supplies power to domestic load such as fans, lights. A battery and charge controller are also used in the system. The two results have been compared. The simulation and hardware results have been found matching with each other. Key Words: PV system, OFF-grid, Batteries, Inverter and Load.
