Control and Conversion of Solar Power
Abstract
Solar energy conversion is one of the most addressed topics in the field of renewable energy. Solar radiation is usually converted into two forms of energy: thermal and electrical energy. Solar electricity has applications in many systems such as rural electricity, water pumping, and satellite communications. A solar power system consists of solar panels, dc-dc converters, controller, and load. Charging a rechargeable battery requires a regulated dc voltage. However, the voltage supplied by a solar panel can vary significantly depending upon the day, time, weather condition, and irradiation from the sun. Since solar power is unregulated, it cannot be supplied to the load directly. Solar power is harvested and stored by charging rechargeable batteries. A dc-dc converter is connected between the solar panel and the battery to charge the battery with a regulated voltage. Therefore, solar power can be properly converted and controlled to provide required electrical power to the load, and excessive power can be sent back to the electrical grid.
