Abstract:
Photovoltaic systems are widely used to convert solar energy to electricity. The output of the PV system is strongly affected by the weather. In order to maintain the stability of the power, rechargeable battery is necessary to store the electricity temporarily. The objective, in this poster, is to make the output voltage of PV (solar panel) constant to connect its rechargeable battery 12v DC. In details, MATLAB- Simulink is used to simulate the power stage (Buck- Boost converter) and closed loop of feedback controller. Also, the Arduino Uno is used to implement and test PID (proportional, integral, derivative) controller. Results from MATLAB simulation and experiments will be presented.
