The development of this work was born from cooperation between the Power Electronics and Renewable Sources Laboratory of the University of Salerno and the ABB Solar Group company (ex Power-One) of Terranuova Bracciolini ...

In this thesis two adaptive Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) techniques for PhotoVoltaic (PV) applications, which are based on two different real-time identification procedures are proposed. The algorithms are implemented ...

A photovoltaic field is typically composed by series-connected panels, thus composing strings, which are then connected in parallel. By this way, the current and the voltage values of the photovoltaic generator are adapted ...
