Modified Perturb and Observe Approach in MPPT for a Standalone Photovoltaic System

Abstract

This paper proposes a modified perturb and observe algorithm approach to increase the output power of an independent photovoltaic system. Today, photovoltaic application as renewable energy power plant has been prevalent. This popularity is because photovoltaic power plants are easy to apply on-grid and off-grid schemes. In standalone power generation applications, the increased photovoltaic output power is of great help to users as it contributes to increasing overall system efficiency. The perturb and observe algorithm has been known as a reliable and inexpensive method. However, the performance still needs to be improved. Therefore, this study proposes a modified perturb and observe algorithm approach. The research results show the superiority of the proposed method
