This paper presents two strategies for controlling photovoltaic power based on hysteresis controllers. These regulators adjust the photovoltaic current and voltage in order to supply the load with maximum power. The regulators are designed, produced, and tested within the ERCO-INSAT research unit. The proposed structures are experienced, and the results prove the robustness of the controls and confirm their abilities to maintain op timal power in real time. We also presented the mathematical model of the photovoltaic system, a dynamic model taking into account the variation of the climatic parameters as well as the internal parameters of the models such as the series and shunt resistances. Simulation results are validated by an experimental test that confirms the effectiveness of the current and voltage controllers carried out. This simulation is already based on the use of real solar radiation and temperature scenarios recorded by a digital oscilloscope via the intermediary of the sensors. The two techniques are ensured by the use of the Dspace card to control the DC/DC converter and to implement the chosen controls.

Turkey is among the countries largely dependent on energy import. This dependency has increased interest in new and alternative energy sources. Installation of rooftop solar photovoltaic systems (RSPSs) in Turkey is increasing continuously regarding geographical and meteorological conditions. This paper presents an insight into the potential situation for Turkey and a simulation study for the RSPS designing and calculation for the faculty building at Marmara University in Istanbul. This simulation study demonstrates that 84.75-kWp grid-connected RSPS can produce remarkable power. The system is performed in detail with the PV*SOL software (Premium 2017 R8 - Test Version, Valentin Software GmbH, Berlin, Germany). Detailed financial and performance analysis of the grid-connected RSPS for faculty building with various parameters is also carried out in this study. According to the simulation results, the system supplies 13.2% of the faculty buildings’ annual electrical energy consumption. The annual savings value of faculty buildings’ electrical consumption is approximately 90,298 kWh energy which costs roughly $7296. A photovoltaic (PV) system installation for the faculty building, which has considerable potential for solar energy and sunshine duration, is indispensable for clean energy requirements and was supported by the simulation results. This paper can be considered to be a basic feasibility study prior to moving on to the implementation project.

<p><span>This paper presents an analysis in Matlab/Simulink of a three-phase photovoltaic system under balance and unbalance faults in Matlab/Simulink. The aim of this paper is to investigate the performance of the system under various types of fault. The simulation involved various types of faults occurring at different distances from the point of common coupling of the PV system. This paper also aimed to identify what type of fault that may severely damage the system. The simulation results presented in this paper show that the three-phase fault in the microgrid was severely affecting the system since it involved all the three phases of the system while the distance of the fault occurrence is less influenced in the system. The purpose of this research is to observe the effect on the system based on the types of faults occur and the distance faults occur.</span></p>

Starting with the problem of connecting the photovoltaic (PV) system to the main grid, this article presents the control of a grid-connected PV system using fractional-order (FO) sliding mode control (SMC) and FO-synergetic controllers. The article presents the mathematical model of a PV system connected to the main grid together with the chain of intermediate elements and their control systems. To obtain a control system with superior performance, the robustness and superior performance of an SMC-type controller for the control of the udc voltage in the DC intermediate circuit are combined with the advantages provided by the flexibility of using synergetic control for the control of currents id and iq. In addition, these control techniques are suitable for the control of nonlinear systems, and it is not necessary to linearize the controlled system around a static operating point; thus, the control system achieved is robust to parametric variations and provides the required static and dynamic performance. Further, by approaching the synthesis of these controllers using the fractional calculus for integration operators and differentiation operators, this article proposes a control system based on an FO-SMC controller combined with FO-synergetic controllers. The validation of the synthesis of the proposed control system is achieved through numerical simulations performed in Matlab/Simulink and by comparing it with a benchmark for the control of a grid-connected PV system implemented in Matlab/Simulink. Superior results of the proposed control system are obtained compared to other types of control algorithms.

This paper explains the need for renewable energies for “green revival” of the economy. First, we will analyze the overall context of the double crisis. Then we will focus on “green recovery” as a solution for these two crises. Finally, we will study the example of the photovoltaic system as a source of renewable energy by presenting and comparing four types of MPPT commands such as: Perturb and Observe, Incremental Conductance, Fractional Open-Circuit Voltage (FOV) and Fractional Short-Circuit Current (FCC). The Matlab-Simulink environment will be used to analyze and interpret the simulation results of these algorithms and therefore we show the performance and limits of each algorithm.

<span>Artificial Neural Network (ANN) techniques are becoming useful in the current era due to the vast development of the current computer technologies. ANN has been used in various fields especially in the field of science and technology. One of the advantage that makes ANN so interesting is the ANN’s ability to learn the input and output relationship even though the relationship is non-linear. In addition, ANN is also useful for modelling, optimization, prediction, forecasting, and controlling systems. The main objective of this paper is to present a review of the ANN techniques for sizing a stand-alone photovoltaic (PV) system. The review in this paper shows the potential of ANN as a design tool for a stand-alone PV. In addition, ANN is very useful to improve the sizing process of the stand-alone PV system. The sizing process is of paramount importance to a stand-alone PV system in order to make sure the system can generate ample electrical energy to supply the load demand.</span>

This study reviews the hardware approach to mitigate the effects of module mismatch in a grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) system. Unlike software solutions, i.e. the maximum power tracking algorithm, hardware techniques are well suited to enhance energy yield because of their inherent ability to extract energy from the mismatched module. Despite the extra cost of the additional circuitry, hardware techniques have recently gained popularity because of their long-term financial benefits. Notwithstanding the growing interest in this topic, review papers that provide updates on the technological developments of the three main hardware solutions, namely micro inverter, DC power optimizer, and energy recovery circuits, are lacking. This is in contrast to software solutions, which have had a considerable number of reputable reviews. Thus, a comprehensive review paper is appropriate at this juncture to provide up-to-date information on the latest topologies, highlight their merits/drawbacks, and evaluate their comparative performance.

This paper put forward the inertial control strategy based on the control of charge and discharge of supercapacitor and the trigger angle of H-bridge which integrates photovoltaic (PV) system. The whole cascade H-bridge structure is composed of traditional photovoltaic module, Boost/Buck circuit, supercapacitor (SC), and H-bridge circuit. First, the charging state and the inertial energy power support of the SC are analysed. Then the control strategy of the cascade H-bridge is proposed. To verify the efficiency of the control strategy, a cascade chain consists of 12 H-bridge unit was built in EMTP simulation software. Finally the simulation results prove that the newly developed SC-integrated cascade module can do inertial energy support well, which is important to the coordination between the power system and solar energy.
