MPPT Control for PV Generation System Based on an Improved Inccond Algorithm

Abstract

Maximum power point tracking (MPPT) is one of the key technologies in photovoltaic generation system. Incremental conductance (IncCond) method is recognized as theoretically concise and effective among existed classic tracking algorithms, but the application of which was hindered by the rigid requirements upon the precision of hardware. Aim to solve this, an improved IncCond algorithm significantly reduces these requirements was presented in this paper and related experiments have been carried out to verify its effectiveness.
