A Maximum Power Point Tracker Control of a Photovoltaic System

Abstract

Due the low utilization factor of photovoltaicarrays it is essential to extract the power through a converter that maximizes the operating point which varies with temperature and irradiance. In this paper we analyze the performance of the most recent Maximum Power Point Tracking algorithms. A new algorithm is proposed as the Adaptive Hill Climbing method. This new method is evaluated in controlled conditions in the laboratory. An outdoor …
