“…The examined indicators has not been fully covered in previously published articles such as [6][7][8][9][10]. Additionally, this research does not only examine several partial shading conditions affecting PV systems but also the modelling and the analysis of several faulty PV conditions (In-active PV modules) affecting various PV array configurations.…”

The goal of this paper is to model, compare and analyze the performance of multiple photovoltaic (PV) array configurations under various partial shading and faulty PV conditions. For this purpose, a multiple PV array configurations including series (S), parallel (P), series-parallel (SP), total-cross-tied (TCT) and bridge-linked (BL) are carried out under several partial shading conditions such as, increase or decrease in the partial shading on a row of PV modules and increase or decrease in the partial shading on a column of PV modules. Additionally, in order to test the performance of each PV configuration under faulty PV conditions, from 1 to 6 Faulty PV modules have been disconnected in each PV array configuration. Several indicators such as short circuit current (I sc ), current at maximum power point (I mpp ), open circuit voltage (V oc ), voltage at maximum power point (V mpp ), series resistance (R s ), fill factor (FF) and thermal voltage (V te ) have been used to compare the obtained results from each partial shading and PV faulty condition applied to the PV system. MATLAB/Simulink software is used to perform the simulation and the analysis for each examined PV array configuration.

Abstract. Solar cells use the natural sunlight for a variety of purposes including electrical power generation. In order to maximize the power obtained from a solar cell, it has to operate at what is known as the Maximum Power Point (MPP). Intelligent algorithms that can track MPP for a given cell are crucial for the success of a large scale deployment of solar panels. This paper investigates the performance of two well-known Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) algorithms. A variable irradiance environment has been considered in this work, where sunlight varies significantly during the day. Towards the end, frequency stability analysis is conducted to evaluate the relevant impact of MPPT algorithms on frequency stability of system.

“…An occurrence of shading on the panel surfaces is a negative phenomenon, which makes the task of obtaining the maximum available power difficult. Therefore, the authors of [8] suggested a different classification of the maximum power point search algorithms: algorithms working under the uniform insolation and algorithms for partial shading conditions. The first group includes the traditional algorithms qualified for online and offline methods.…”

Photovoltaic panels have a non-linear current-voltage characteristics to produce the maximum power at only one point called the maximum power point. In the case of the uniform illumination a single solar panel shows only one maximum power, which is also the global maximum power point. In the case an irregularly illuminated photovoltaic panel many local maxima on the power-voltage curve can be observed and only one of them is the global maximum. The proposed algorithm detects whether a solar panel is in the uniform insolation conditions. Then an appropriate strategy of tracking the maximum power point is taken using a decision algorithm. The proposed method is simulated in the environment created by the authors, which allows to stimulate photovoltaic panels in real conditions of lighting, temperature and shading.
