This study proposed a model that can track MPP faster than the existing MPPT algorithm using the particle swarm optimization algorithm (PSO). The proposed model highly sets the acceleration constants of gbest and pbest in the PSO algorithm to quickly track the MPP point and eliminates the power instability problem. In addition, this algorithm was re-executed by detecting the change in power of the solar panel according to the rapid change in solar radiation. As a result of the experiment, MPP time was 0.03 seconds and power was 131.65 for 691.5 W/m2, and MPP was tracked at higher power and speed than the existing P&O and INC algorithms. The proposed model can be applied when a change in the amount of power is detected by partial shading in a Photovoltaic power plant with Photovoltaic connected in parallel. In order to improve the MPPT algorithm, this study needs a comparative study on optimization algorithms such as moth flame optimization (MFO) and whale optimization algorithm (WOA).

For DC-AC power conversion from a high-voltage photovoltaic panel to a single-phase grid, the two-stage transformerless inverter with a buck-boost converter followed by a full-bridge inverter is widely used. To avoid an excessive leakage current due to the large parasitic capacitance of the photovoltaic panel, the full-bridge inverter can only adopt the bipolar PWM which results in much higher power loss compared to the unipolar PWM. In order to overcome such a poor efficiency, this paper proposes a new topology in which an IGBT and a diode for circuit isolation are added to the buck-boost converter. The proposed circuit isolation method allows the unipolar PWM in the full-bridge inverter without any increase in the leakage current so that the overall efficiency can be improved. The validity of the proposed solution is verified by computer simulation and power loss calculation.

A folding solar power system is a stand-alone system and is a structure with solar panels attached. It consists of supporting parts and folding parts for ease of movement. While the efficiency of solar panels is also important to produce electricity by maximizing the power efficiency of solar panels, the most important thing is structure stability. The folding solar power structure intended to be developed in this study is a collapsible structure that is easy to move and install into systems that can produce electricity from grid to independent. Since these structures are installed outdoors, wind loads, snow cover, etc. In this paper, the wind loads most affected by the folding solar power generation structure were obtained using the MeshFree Finite Element Method. MeshFree is a program that makes it easier for users to interpret by simplifying the mesh tasks required by an existing analysis. The analysis showed that the greater the angle of inclination of the wind to the ground, the greater the wind load. In addition, reliability was ensured by wind load testing.

Due to the many amenities of a modern power with solar power and green energy alternative to injury by cutting down on the number of solar energy and pollution and environmental factors. There is still much research and trying to incorporate a variety of applications. In this paper, create a daytime energy by fusing solar panels and billboards, and at night has the advantage that you can save more energy used to sign by the sign serves also and at the same time energy acts like a tent when the day by using the power usage is expected to be higher.

An agrivoltaic system (AVS) is a combined system that generates power through photovoltaic panels (PVPs) installed above a field where a crop is cultivated. Although soil moisture is an important limiting factor for open-field crop production, particularly during spring season in Korea, it is not well considered in the utilization of AVS. Indeed, the application of water-energy-food nexus on the AVS should be necessary. In this study, the changes of soil moisture and temperature under the AVS was investigated in fallow paddy field during spring season. The AVS that has partial shading condition by PV panels was decreased soil temperature and increased soil moisture compared to open-field. Furthermore, the maximum of the change in soil moisture to the change in soil temperature had a negative correlation both on open-field and AVS under wet condition. It represents that the micro-climate under the AVS is in energy-limited condition. The open-field of relatively high soil temperature was in water-limited condition. The different behavior of soil moisture on the AVS should be considered for the sustainable agricultural system as related to water-energy-food nexus.

A solar power generation system on single point moored offshore plant has independent power system In order to satisfy the maritime environment and account for the number of sunless days, it is important to supply stable electric power to the systems. For these reasons, solar panels are installed in multiple directions. However, a partial shading effect occurs because the amount of light incident on each panel is different. The generated power by the solar generation system installed on land is affected by the latitude, then it is installed at an angle of 30 to $45^{\circ}$. in the case of Korea. In the case of a solar power generation system installed in a mooring type of marine plant, there is a possibility that the maximum power point is outside of the controllable range due to the partial shading effect. Therefore, a power generation loss occurs. By reducing the light amount difference between both panels, the maximum power point can exist in a range where the MPPT algorithm can track the power. The purpose is so the power generation efficiency can be further increased. In this paper, simulation results show that the highest power generation efficiency is obtained at an installation angle of $20^{\circ}$.

세계 태양광 시장은 실리콘 태양전지를 중심으로 기술경쟁에서 가격 경쟁의 시대로 변화되면서 중국의 저가화 공세에 의해 많은 기업들이 수익성 악화로 인해 도산하거나 위기에 처하게 되었다. 이러한 위기를 극복하기 위해 세계 각국에서는 다양한 타입의 태양전지를 개발하여 사업화를 시도하고 있다. 이러한 시도 중 하나가 투명 태양전지이다. 기존의 태양전지 패널을 설치하기 위해서는 추가적인 공간이 필요하고 건물 위에 설치했을 경우 채광과 외관이 좋지 않은 단점을 가지고 있다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 건물의 유리창을 태양전지로 활용하는 방안이 도입되고 있다. 만약 유리창을 대신하는 투명 태양전지가 상용화 된다면 추가적인 공간이 필요하지 않고 건물의 채광이나 외관을 해치지 않아 건물의 에너지 비용을 절감하고 활용도가 높아질 것이다. 본 논문에서는 투명 태양전지의 개발 동향 및 방향에 대하여 논하고자 한다.
