Abstract
Photovoltaic (PV) energy being clean and inexhaustible is an important renewable energy source. For the efficient utilization of output energy of PV arrays, it is essential to operate PV systems in the Maximum Power Point (MPP). In contrast, the nonlinear behavior of PV systems, maximum power point variations with temperature and solar irradiance level make its tracking complicated. Since, there are various MPPT approaches proposed in the literature. This work presents a comparative study among three Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) algorithms which are Proportional Integral Derivative (PID)-based incremental conductance, PID-based perturb and observe and Fuzzy Logic Controller (FLC) based modeling of PV systems. The controllers were stimulated using MATLAB/Simulink under various weather and load conditions in terms of efficiency, power quality and MPP error. The results of simulation show that the MPPT technique based on FLC is more efficient in comparison to other techniques, giving a fruitful energy conversion efficiency of 97.02%.
