Design and Simulation of High-Gain DC-DC Converter using P&O Algorithm with Bi-Directional Converter for Minimum Voltage Standalone Solar PV System

The inexhaustible source of energy which produced from sun through radiation and it is readily available source at free of cost. Solar Photo Voltaic (PV) systems are used as a primary source to produce power. The solar PV system needs DC-DC converter with enhanced voltage gain as well as efficiency. A typical DC-DC converter provides constrained gain and productivity as increase in requirements. For organization of battery Bidirectional converter is used which allows the energy flow in both the direction. The complete working of below voltage PV system and battery that is used are worked by using various dc converters from which the efficiency and gain level can be improved. Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) is employed to receive peak power from solar PV by sustaining DC line voltage and satisfy power requirements. The perturb and observe (P&O) algorithm is mostly used to obtain the high voltage from solar PV. The entire framework is designed and simulated using MATLAB-Simulink toolbox.
