Comparative Analysis of Intelligent Controller Based MPPT for Photovoltaic System with Super Lift Boost Converter
Abstract
In recent years, the electrical energy demand increases gradually and the power generation does not meet the demand due to lack of fossil fuel and environmental issues. The only solution is to use renewable energy sources for generating electricity and meet the consumers demand. In this paper, photovoltaic power system analyses their performance under various weather conditions. The objective of this paper is comparing the different intelligent controllers such as Fuzzy, ANFIS and Hybrid Fuzzy & Firefly Algorithm (HFFA) for Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) of 100 Watts PV system using a Super Lift Boost Converter (SLBC). The proposed intelligent controller is designed and simulated in MATLAB environment under various weather conditions. The simulation results have been analyzed and the performance of the proposed model evaluated with changing irradiation conditions. Finally, the performance of Hybrid Fuzzy and firefly based MPPT has been suggested as the optimum controller for the photovoltaic system.
