Photovoltaic (PV) energy is one of the most important
energy resources since it is clean, pollution free, and endless.
Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) is used in photovoltaic
(PV) systems to maximize the photovoltaic output power,
irrespective the variations of temperature and radiation conditions.
This paper presents a comparison between Ćuk and SEPIC converter
in maximum power point tracking (MPPT) of photovoltaic (PV)
system. In the paper, advantages and disadvantages of both
converters are described. Incremental conductance control method
has been used as maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithm.
The two converters and MPPT algorithm were modelled using
MATLAB/Simulink software for simulation. Simulation results show
that both Ćuk and SEPIC converters can track the maximum power
point with some minor variations |
