태양광 가로등 시스템에 사용되는 전원 장치는 배터리 충전을 위한 충전기와 LED Lamp를 구동하기 위한 LED 드라이버로 구성되어 있는데 일반적인 시스템에서는 별도의 전원장치로 구성되어 있다. 본 연구에서는 충전기와 LED 드라이버를 한 개의 전원장치로 구성하였다. 특히 장치의 효율을 높이기 위하여 계통 연계형 태양광 발전시스템에 적용하는 최대전력추적(Maximum Power Point Tracking: MPPT) 방식을 충전기에 적용하였다. LED 드라이버에 필수적인 정전류 방식은 충전기의 전류제어 루틴을 사용하여 구현하였다.

본 논문에서는 무변압기형 3상 계통연계 PV PCS (photovoltaic power conditioning system)를 제안하였다. 태양전지의 국소 최대 전력점에서 발전하는 것을 방지하여 최대 전력점에서 발전을 하도록 개선한 P&O (perturb and observe) 방식의 MPPT (maximum power point tracking) 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 3상 전압형 인버터를 외부 직류 링크 전압제어기, 내부 전류제어기, 그리고 마이크로컨트롤러로 구현하기에 적합하도록 간단화한 공간벡터 변조법을 통해 제어하여 3상 계통연계 시 단위 역률을 실현하였다. 그리고 시스템의 안정성 향상과 역률 개선을 위해 직류 링크 전압을 더 빠르고 정확하게 제어하기 위한 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 모든 알고리즘과 제어기를 하나의 마이크로컨트롤러로 구현하고 제안된 알고리즘과 제어기의 우수성을 실험을 통해 검증하였다.

This paper presents a grid connected photo-voltaic system using a quasi-Z-source inverter (QZSI) for power stage reduction. The power stage can be reduced because of an additional shoot-through stage which is a characteristic of QZSI. Therefore, by utilizing a QZSI the system's efficiency can be increased. In this paper, for applying a QZSI to a PV system, control methods such as maximum power point tracking (MPPT), point of common coupling (PCC) current control and PWM are studied and verified through simulation and experiment. In order to explain the above controllers, the characteristics of a QZSI are first analyzed. Then the MPPT control technique with a modified P&O method, the PCC current control for the regulation of the dc-link capacitor voltage and the PWM methods for the proposed system are explained. The feasibility of the proposed algorithm is verified through simulation and experiment with a 3kW system.

In the variable-speed wind energy system, to achieve maximum power point tracking (MPPT), the wind turbine should run close to its optimal angular speed according to the wind speed. Non-linear control methods that consider the dynamic behavior of wind speed are generally used to provide maximum power and improved efficiency. In this perspective, the mechanical power is estimated using Kalman filter. And then, from the estimated mechanical power, the wind speed is estimated with Newton-Raphson method to achieve maximum power without anemometer. However, the blade shape and air density get changed with time and the generator efficiency is also degraded. This results in incorrect estimation of wind speed and MPPT. It causes not only the power loss but also incorrect wind resource assessment of site. In this paper, the adaptive maximum power point tracking control algorithm for wind turbine system based on the estimation of wind speed is proposed. The proposed method applies correction factor to wind turbine system to have accurate wind speed estimation for exact MPPT. The proposed method is validated with numerical simulations and the results show an improved performance.

태양 에너지는 재생 가능하고 오염이 없는 특성으로 바람직한 에너지 원이다. 계통에 이용하기 위해서는 dc-dc 컨버터와 계통 연계 do-ac 인버터가 필요하다. dc-dc 컨버터는 태양광 시스템이 높은 dc전압에 동작하기 위하여 필요하고, 인버터는 계통에 연결하기 위하여 필요한 전압과 주파수를 만들어 내는데 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 첫째로 단상 계통 연계 인버터에서 전류 루프 전달 함수가 유도되고, 둘째로 컨버터 측에서 컨덕턴스 증가 방식의 MPPT 방식이 제안하여 인버터 측에 최대 전력을 공급하는데 있다. 시뮬레이션 결과가 계통에서 태양광 인버터 시스템의 성능과 특성을 보여준다.

This paper presents a maximum power point tracking(MPPT) of photovoltaic system with duty ratio of DC-DC converter considered load. A variation of solar irradiation is most important factor in the MPPT of PV system That is nonlinear, aperiodic and complicated. NN was widely used due to easily solving a complex math problem.

In this paper, a high efficiency satellite electrical power supply system is proposed. The increased efficiency of the power supply system allows for downscaling of the solar array and battery weight, which are among the most important satellite design considerations. The satellite power supply system comprises two units, namely a generation unit and a storage unit. To increase the efficiency of the solar array, a maximum power point tracker (MPPT) is used in the power generation unit. In order to improve the MPPT performance, a novel algorithm is proposed on the basis of the hill climbing method. This method can track the main peak of the array power curve in satellites with long duration missions under unpredicted circumstances such as a part of the array being damaged or the presence of a shadow. A lithium-ion battery is utilized in the storage unit. An algorithm for calculating the optimal rate of battery charging is proposed where the battery is charged with the maximum possible efficiency considering the situation of the satellite. The proposed system is designed and manufactured. In addition, it is compared to the conventional power supply systems in similar satellites. Results show a 12% increase in the overall efficiency of the power supply system when compared to the conventional method.

Maximum Power Point Tracking(MPPT) is used in wind power generation systems to maximize wind power turbin output power, irrespective of wind speed conditions and of the load electrical characteristics. In this paper we do the equivalent modeling the mechanical energy of wind power turbine according to wind speed into the synchronous generator. We analyse the equivalent modeling output part of rectifier into DC/DC converter input part theoretically. We design a control algorithm for variable voltage according to wind speed intensity and density so that load voltage of chopper is controlled steadily using the maximum power point tracking (MPPT) control method. We analyse a battery charging characteristics and a charging circuit for power storage enabling the supply of stable power to the load. We design a system and do the modeling of it analytically so that it supplies a stable power to the load by constructing a DC-AC inverter point. Also we design a charging circuit usable in actual wind power generation system of 30kW and confirm its validity.
