Abstract

Due to the increasing energy demand, traditional fossil fuels are gradually decaying day by day as analyzed by many researchers. Fossil fuels are not sufficient to fulfil the requirement of energy demand and it also produces greenhouse gas emissions. In this regard, worldwide research is going on related to renewable energy sources (RESs) like solar photovoltaic (SPV), wind turbines, fuel cells etc. The source of SPV is plentiful and environment friendly which converts solar radiation to non-linear electrical power. This power is not suitable for a stable system. Therefore, the maximum power point tracking (MPPT) controller is required to find the optimum maximum power point (MPP) to the load. The MPPT technology regulates the duty-cycle in favour of the DC-DC converter to continuously obtain maximum power from the SPV arrays. In the past few decades, the learning of MPPT techniques has made substantial progress in the RESs. This research article analyzes the performance of various MPPT techniques in the proposed SPV framework. The main investigation is to assess different MPPT techniques to optimize power from the SPV framework. The artificial neural network (ANN)-MPPT method has been observed to be more effective in output power production and transient response about the MPP than conventional perturb and observe (P&O)-MPPT and fuzzy logic controller (FLC)-MPPT technology.

Keywords- SPV array, DC-DC converters, MPPT technology, ANN, FLC, P&O.
