Abstract

Agriculture is a well-versed procedure adapted in many farms of our world which helps to increase the crop yields and its diversification. Moreover, these practices include the use of conventional electric motors and generators. In advance to that solar PV-based water pumping system (SWP) came into practice which offers fabulous solutions compared to other conventional systems as it needs lesser maintenance, ease for installation, free of fuel cost, zero emanation of greenhouse gases, portable and most important reliable too. Henceforth, it greatly motivated the researchers to design a more efficient and controlled system. This manuscript takes an initiative work to represent SWP system control strategies wherein the details of input source PV, boosting PV voltage by various converters, charge controllers, and also energy management by supervisory controllers for SWP system are discussed.
