Control of Wind Energy Connected Single Phase Grid with MPPT for Domestic Purposes

Abstract

This paper proposes Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) for a fixed speed wind energy system based on single phase grid-connected three-phase Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator (PMSG) for residential applications. The proposed method of MPPT based converter topology with AC-DC converter and DC-DC boost converter allied with single phase grid-connected wind energy system to obtain maximum power. Synchronization of grid along with wind energy, the switching approaches of projected inverter is used with a combination of square wave (SW) and sinusoidal pulse width modulation (SPWM) signals. The performance of projected inverter power circuit under the single-phase grid-connected wind energy developed via MATLAB. Furthermore, maintain power balance and increase the efficiency of the system, the PMSG module is developed in MATLAB with a simple MPPT based converter topology.
