Abstract

The current Power demand of both industrial and domestic sectors forcing them to shift from traditional power sources to the green sources like Solar and Wind. Distributed Generation systems using solar and wind have multi-fold benefits compared to the traditional power generation. The Electrical power drawn from these renewables sources using MPPT methods such as Perturb & Observe (P&O), and Incremental Conductance (INC) methods are examined in this paper for the industrial solar panel 1soltech 1sth-215p. The voltage produced from the solar panel is amplified using different DC-DC Converters such as Boost, Elementary Luo and Super lift Luo converters and their outcomes are estimated using MATLAB/SIMULINK and they are related using performance indices such as voltage gain and efficiency. Incremental conductance method with super lift Luo converter is observed as the best among the other approaches estimated in this paper.
