Three-Point MPPT Technique for Photovoltaic

Renewable energy is generally defined as energy that comes from resources which are naturally replenished on a human timescale, such as sunlight, wind, rain, tides, waves, and geothermal heat. Of all the renewable sources of energy, one of the most easily trappable is the solar energy. This project aims at designing a solar panel that taps the maximum output power through a maximum power tracking technique. The solar panel has been designed by taking the diode equivalent circuit of a PV cell and connecting these individual cells in a combination to generate the required power output. Through 3 point Maximum Power Tracking Technique, the maximum output is fed to boost converter that steps up the voltage to the value as determined by the design of the boost. This design is simulated in Mat lab Simulink.
