Design and Analysis of MPPT Charge Controller

The solar energy is the most recent research topic because it’s direct conversion to electricity. A solar charge controller is a solar battery charger that connects the solar panel(s) to the battery. Its role is to control the battery charging process so that the battery is properly charged, and most importantly, not overcharged. Modern solar charge controllers provide advanced features such as DC load terminals for lighting, ensuring that the battery system is charged precisely and efficiently. The design and study of a photovoltaic generator simulation model are presented in this paper. The main components in these systems are solar array, boost converter and load. To extract maximum power from photovoltaic generator, proper control of converter is established. The program is simulated with different parameters and the changes in output has been observed. The result shows the dynamic behavior and control performance of the photovoltaic system in the MATLAB/Simulink.
