DC-DC converter is one of the most essential component for
efficient utilization in renewable energy sources.
The main goal of this paper is to use Maximum power point
tracking (MPPT) system and buck-boost DC/DC converter in the
photovoltaic (PV)
system to maximize the (PV) output power,
irrespective of the temperature and irradiation conditions.
The main goal of this search is to design maximum solar power batteries charging
system, Maximum power point tracking (MPPT) system is used in the photovoltaic (PV)
system consisting of a buck-boost Direct Current DC/DC converter, which is controll
ed by
a microcontroller unit, The microcontroller is programmed with a simple and reliable
MPPT called Incremental Conductance (InCond).
The designed battery charger was tested, and the results obtained had insured about
the permanent control on the battery charging.
Comparison study was done, with PWM solar charger controller, it was obvious by
The experimental results, that the battery get charged in a very short time period
considering of the solar sun light hours per day, and the characteristics of the used solar
panel, which confirm the reliable performance of the suggested charging system.
