Photovoltaic-based DC microgrid with partial shading and fault tolerance

Maximum Power Point Tracker for Photovoltaic Systems Based on Moth-Flame Optimization Considering Partial Shading Conditions

The performance of photovoltaic (PV) systems is highly dependent on environmental conditions. Due to probable changes in environmental conditions, the real-time control of PV systems is essential for exploiting their maximum possible power. This paper proposes a new method to track the maximum power point of PV systems using the moth-flame optimization algorithm. In this method, the PV DC-DC co...

Photovoltaic Array Modeling under Uniform Irradiation and Partial Shading Condition

Received Sep 9, 2017 Revised Oct 28, 2017 Accepted Nov 15, 2017 Wind energy and solar energy are the prime energy sources which are being utilized for renewal energy. The performance of a photovoltaic (PV) array for solar energy is affected by temperature, irradiation, shading, and array configuration. Often, the PV arrays are shadowed, completely or partially, by the passing clouds, neighborin...

Modeling and Control of Low-Voltage DC Microgrid With Photovoltaic Energy Resources

Photovoltaic Based Dc-Dc Multiport Converter with Distributed Generation

The main objective of the paper is The growing concern for energy saving has increased the usage of LEDbased Street Lights, Electronic Chokes, Compact Fluorescent Lamps, And Inverter-Fed Drives. Hence, the load profile seen by the electrical grid is undergoing a notable change as these devices have to operate from a dc source. Photovoltaic (PV) being a major energy source, the loads can be conn...
