Optimization of Photovoltaic Generator by Using PO Algorithm Under Different Weather Conditions

M. Azzouzi

Abstract


The aim of this work is to apply the Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) principle, to optimize the yield of the solar panel. For this, one used MatLab/Simulink software package to apply the Perturbed and Observer Algorithm of optimization on this panel which is supplied by a Boost converter. The results of the characterization of the modeling of the electrical characteristics of the photovoltaic (PV) panels have been presented in function of the illumination. The voltage and the power of the panel as well as the battery, and the duty cycle are well presented and analyzed to find the Maximal Power Point in function of luminosity and temperature, the results have been compared between a standard panel and a MPPT controlled panel.
