Solar Panel Tracking with Battery-Assisted and Battery Charging Modes
摘要
One of the renewable energy sources that can be employed in place of traditional energy sources is solar energy. Sun trackers can be used to increase photovoltaic systems’ ability to produce electricity. The design of the control implementation is straightforward and efficient. To demonstrate the effectiveness of this plan, a prototype is created. Experimental verification of the solar tracking’s effectiveness is possible. This work will be a useful resource for applying solar energy in the future. BDHC, which performs DC-DC conversion, is employed in this system to produce energy from solar cells using a single inductor. Battery charging mode is when the remaining energy from the buck-boost converter is used to charge the battery if the system load is less than the amount of energy that was captured. Battery-aided mode, which supplies the load using both the battery and harvested energy, is used when the harvested energy is less than the system load. The crucial charging method is discovered to be the ideal control scheme for maximized power efficiency.
