Abstract

The classical algorithms for maximum power point tracking ensure proper operation under uniform irradiance conditions. However, when photovoltaic (PV) array is subject to partial shading conditions (PSC), several local maxima appear on the P-V characteristics curve of the PV array which are due to the use of the bypass diodes to avoid hot spots effect. The appearance of these multiple peaks on the characteristics of PV array makes the tracking more difficult under these conditions and requires the integration of a more efficient power control system which is able to discriminate between local and global maxima to harvest the maximum possible energy and therefore increase the efficiency of overall system. In addition to implementing a global maximum power point tracking strategies, the mismatch losses associated to the shading effect can further be reduced by using alternative PV arrays’ configurations such as Total-Cross-Tied (TCT), Bridge Linked (BL) and Honey-Comb (HC).
