Abstract

Photovoltaic (PV) system is now recognised to be most widely accepted method of harnessing renewable energy sources. In general, due to the weather condition the solar energy is changed because solar PV electricity outputs are highly sensitive to effects of irradiation and temperature changes. Energy storage such as batteries and fuel cells are able to make solar PV system becomes more stable energy source and it can be dispatched at the request which result in improving performance and value of the output solar PV system. The proposed research objective are to evaluate the output current and power characteristic of PV module and observe the system response to varies whether the condition in terms of change in cell temperature and solar irradiance. Besides, aimed of modelling and simulate a single stage power conversion. So, in this project a new converter called reconfigurable solar converter (RSC) in SIMULINK/MATLAB for photovoltaic (PV)-battery application since it uses single-stage conversion instead of multistage conversion to perform DC-DC and DC-AC operations. This converter solution is appealing for PV-battery application because it minimizes the number of conversion stages, thereby improving efficiency, simple in construction and reducing cost.
