Different Kinds of Maximum Power Point Tracking Control Method for Photovoltaic Systems: A Review

In modern years due to rising environmental issues such as energy cost and greenhouse gas emission have motivated new research into alternative methods of generation of electrical power. A vast deal of new research and enlargement for the renewable energy photovoltaic (PV) system. The PV module is conducted to search out non-polluting and renewable sources. New inventions are in development and exploring the perfection of solar cells to increase the efficiency and reduce the cost of power in per peak watt. The analysis of different kinds of control methods in PV system according to reviewed previous studies, shows that the most useful method is a hybrid technique as compared to other maximum power point tracking (MPPT) control methods. MPPT control method used to optimize the output of solar PV system with variable inputs such as solar radiations and temperature. The MPPT may include the use of a different DC-DC converter and also some different MPPT algorithms such as current based MPPT. Multi-input energy systems for the hybrid wind/solar energy systems need to be developed.
