Maximum power point tracking is a key asset to ensure an efficient energy conversion when a photovoltaic power source is involved. In this work, a novel approach combining a Neural-Network based tracking technique with an highly efficient algorithm for non-inverting buck-boost DC-DC converter (NIBB) control is proposed. The approach is validated through comparison against the well-known PO algorithm, resulting superior both in terms of identifying the correct operating point for the PV device, and in terms of dynamic stability of the converter.

Abstract

Maximum power point tracking is a key asset to ensure an efficient energy conversion when a photovoltaic power source is involved. In this work, a novel approach combining a Neural-Network based tracking technique with an highly efficient algorithm for non-inverting buck-boost DC-DC converter (NIBB) control is proposed. The approach is validated through comparison against the well-known PO algorithm, resulting superior both in terms of identifying the correct operating point for the PV device, and in terms of dynamic stability of the converter.
