Abstract

DC-DC converters are utilized to interface the Photovoltaic source to the battery for charging purposes. A non-isolated (NI) DC-DC buck-boost converter has been employed as a maximum power point tracking (MPPT) system to derive the photovoltaic power present. The MPPT control is utilized to extricate the greatest power available from the photovoltaic source. The MPPT gets the solar irradiation and solar cell temperature as contributions to decide the optimized duty cycle to acquire maximum power. In this work, a non-isolated buck-boost converter is utilized as MPP tracker for battery charging applications. The performance of the converter is simulated and validated through the experimental results.
