Maximum Power Point Tracking for Small Scale Wind Turbine with Self-Excited Induction Generator
Abstract
This paper presents the basic methods for MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking)
controlling only the charging of the battery banks. This is a cheap solution for small scale wind turbines.
A simple MPPT method is presented by changing the load of the SEIG (Self Excited Induction
Generator) driven by the wind turbine. Two systems are compared: one with MPPT and one without it.
This paper also shows the effect of the load variation caused by the MPPT on the voltage of the SEIG.
