Due to the lack of fossil fuels and its products quantities,
obtaining difficulties, and its global and local high price. It has
become necessary to look for other means and methods of
providing electrical energy far from fossil resources or suppo
rt
the existing ones.
The study is focused on renewable energy sources, especially
solar energy (both thermal and photovoltaic), wind energy as
well as biomass which are sufficiently available in the Syrian
Arab Republic.
Utilizing the renewable energy sources is the main focus of
this study, in which the investment in the field of photovoltaic
energy and economic efficiency will be reviewed and
compared to generating electricity using diesel generators.
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.
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.
