Comparison of P&O and Incremental conductance for MPPT algorithm in bifacial solar PV system

In this paper, a review is carried on existing MPPT control techniques and their performances were evaluated when applied to bifacial solar panels. With the increasing demand for sustainable and efficient energy solutions, bifacial solar panels have gained significant attention due to their ability to harness sunlight from both the front and backside, resulting in higher energy yields. To fully capitalize on the potential of bifacial panels, the integration of an effective Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) charge control system becomes crucial. This paper presents a comprehensive review and analysis of the application of MPPT control on bifacial solar panels, focusing on its benefits, challenges, and advancements in the field. The research aims to provide valuable insights to scientists, engineers and policy makers, promote the adoption of this technology and advance the development of renewable energy systems. By utilizing sunlight from both the panel's front and back surfaces, bifacial solar panels present a possible way to increase solar energy acquisition. Advanced control tactics must be used if these advanced solar systems are to reach their full potential. The studies and advancements in charge control using Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) that are specific to bifacial solar panels are summarized in this abstract. The operating voltage and current of bifacial solar panels are dynamically adjusted by bifacial MPPT charge control systems, ensuring that they function at their peak power points under a variety of environmental situations. Orientation optimization, rear-side irradiance measurement, bifacial component integration, and the employment of complex computations are important design factors for these systems. These devices can change light conditions, shading effects, and other environmental factors, thus maximizing energy generation.
