Module integrated PV balancer for PV applications

Abstract

This paper presents the possibility of Module Integrated Converters (MIC) called PV balancers for photovoltaic applications. The proposed thought enables self-governing Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) for each board, and radically decreases the requirements for power converters. The power rating of a PV balancer is under 20% of its accomplices, and the collecting cost is as such inside and out diminished. The proposed engineering of the PV balancer is checked through simulation results. It is foreseen that the proposed methodology will be an ease answer for future photovoltaic power frameworks.
