An Enhanced Incremental Conductance Algorithm for Photovoltaic System
Journal Title: Elektronika - Year 2018, Vol 22, Issue 1
Abstract
The energy obtained from the photovoltaic array is dependent on the available solar insolation, the panel tilt angle and the power point tracking algorithm of the system. Some of the Conventional MPPT methods are developed by considering uniform solar irradiance. During partial shading conditions, solar panel may produce multiple Local Maximum Power Points (LMPPs) in its power voltage characteristic curve. A new algorithm has been developed in this paper by using sequential sampling embedded with existing incremental conductance procedure in order to predict the Global Maximum Power Point (GMPP). The tracking capability of proposed algorithm is verified with simulation works carried out in MATLAB/SIMULINK. The results of proposed algorithm are likened with the results classical Perturb and Observe (P&O) and Incremental Conductance algorithms.
