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 ...

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 ...
