Abstract

In this paper utilization of boost converter for control of photovoltaic (PV) power using maximum power point tracking control technique is presented. First photovoltaic (PV) module is analyzed using MATLAB software. The mail aim the boost converter is to be used along with a maximum power point (MPPT) mechanism. The MPPT is responsible for extracting maximum possible power from the photovoltaic (PV) and feed it to the load via the boost converter which steps up the voltage to required magnitude. The main aim will be track maximum power point of the photovoltaic (PV) module so that the maximum possible power can be extracted from the photovoltaic. The algorithms and boost converter are modeled using MATLAB software.
