A Comprehensive Study on Adaptive MPPT Control Techniques for Efficient Power Generation

Abstract

The variable conditions like partial shading, changing irradiance, irregular load lead to reduction of efficiency of solar PV systems and because of this lower proficiency to convert and expensiveness of solar photovoltaic, it is requisite to extract the power at maximum power point, and hence, this paper presents a study on various adaptive control techniques used for impedance matching and tracking of power generation from solar PV so to reach and hold at maximum power point, minimize the effects of nonlinearities and performance improvement. The aim of the study is to address the advances made in this field for the future research purposes.
