Improved hybrid intelligent controller design for MPPT of stand-alone PV System

Abstract

Hybrid intelligent controller MPPT Stand-alone PV system Photovoltaic (PV) systems have low power conversion efficiency, so maximum power point tracking (MPPT) control methods are utilized to maximize the efficiency of PV systems. The present study proposes an improved hybrid intelligent controller design for the MPPT of stand-alone PV system. The hybrid intelligent control structure is integrated into Angle of Incremental Conductance (AIC) method and Interval Type-2 Takagi-Sugeno-Kang Fuzzy Logic Controller (IT2-TSKFLC). The proposed hybrid intelligent controller offers a superior performance in terms of dealing with uncertainties of sudden changes under different environmental conditions. A simulation model is created in Matlab/Simulink using daily data from a real solar PV plant to evaluate the performance of the proposed hybrid intelligent controller. The simulation findings demonstrated that the proposed hybrid intelligent controller displays a highly stable and robust performance in terms of tracking maximum power point compared to a conventional AIC MPPT method against various uncertainties stemming from disturbing inputs such as solar irradiance and panel temperature variations.

“…Therefore, it requires a suitable non-linear controller structure [22]. Type-2 FLCs are widely preferred because they display a more effective controlling performance against system uncertainties compared to type-1 FLCs [23]. Type-2 FLCs also offer a different version with a lower computational load called interval type-2 fuzzy logic (IT2FL) controllers [24].…”

“…However, operating SPPs at the MPP is a very challenging task because they have nonlinear current-voltage (I-V) and power-voltage (P-V) characteristics depending on environmental conditions. [4][5][6][7] To cope with this situation and assure stability, the proposed effective approach can be defined as two-stage control scheme. 8,9 First, the MPP of PV module is determined.…”
