In the recent years, the solar energy becomes one of the most important alternative sources of electric energy, so it is important to improve the efficiency and reliability of the photovoltaic (PV) systems. Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) plays an important role in photovoltaic power systems because it maximize the power output from a PV system for a given set of conditions, and therefore m...

This paper presents a new nonlinear backstepping controller for a direct-driven permanent magnet synchronous generator-based wind turbine, which is connected to the power system via back-to-back converters. The proposed controller deals with maximum power point tracking (MPPT) in normal condition and enhances the low-voltage ride-through (LVRT) capability in fault conditions. In this method, to...

This paper proposes an novel maximum power point tracking (MPPT) method for the wind energy conversion system using a Fuzzy with Genetic Algorithm. The proposed output max-imitation control is achieved without mechanical sensors such as the wind speed or position sensor & the new control system will deliver maximum electric power with weightless, high efficiency, and high reliability. The MPPT ...

The purpose of this paper is to propose a novel maximum power point tracking (MPPT) technique to fully utilize photovoltaic (PV) array output power that depends on solar insolation and ambient temperature. The proposed intelligent MPPT algorithm based on extension theory can automatically adjust the step size to track the PV array maximum power point (MPP). Compared with the conventional fixed ...

This paper deals with the design and analysis of standalone solar PV based boost converter with P& O (Perturb and Observe) MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) Techniques. An intermediate converter can therefore increase efficiency by matching the PV system to the load and by operating the solar cell arrays at their maximum power point. MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) controller is used for ...

The most important component affecting the efficiency of photovoltaic power systems are solar panels. In other words, efficiency of these systems are significantly affected due to the being low efficiency of solar panel. Thus, solar panels should be operated under maximum power point conditions through a power converter. In this study, design of boost converter has been carried out with maximum...

System efficiency and cost effectiveness are of critical importance for photovoltaic (PV) systems. This paper addresses the two issues by developing a novel three-port DC-DC converter for stand-alone PV systems, based on an improved Flyback-Forward topology. It provides a compact single-unit solution with a combined feature of optimized maximum power point tracking (MPPT), high step-up ratio, g...
