Performance of Distributed Power Generation System using MPPT

Abstract

In this paper, non-conventional energy sources are employed for grid-connected distributed power generation system (DPGS) to maintain the continuous power output. Based on the input power generated by the wind or solar cell, the grid power is maintain the constant AC supply. The maximum power point tracking (MPPT) techniques are employed in the source side, the source voltage are fed to the controller, based on the source voltage the controller adjusts the duty cycle of boost chopper switches. This boost DC voltage are given as an input for single phase inverter, hence the grid power is maintain constant. The performance of DPGS using wind and solar was carried out using MATLAB/Simulink software.
