MPPT-Maximum Power Point Tracker is a technology to find out the Maximum Power Point of the solar cells under the sunlight. do you have any idear to this technology? let's discuss!
A new approach offered by a number of companies employs panel-embedded electronics, which enables tracking the MPP of each panel individually. This approach ensures that each panel will perform at its own peak power point, independently of the other panels which may require different current due to uneven shading, soiling or electrical mismatch. Some of these solutions make use of Power Optimizers, a DC to DC converter technology developed to maximize the energy harvest from solar photovoltaic systems. Battery-less grid-tied PV inverters utilize MPPTs to extract the maximum power from a PV array, convert this to alternating current (AC) and sell excess energy back to the operators of the power grid. Off-grid power systems also use MPPT charge controllers to extract the maximum power from a PV array. When the immediate power requirements for other devices plugged into the power system are less than the power currently available, the MPPT stores the "extra" energy – energy that is not immediately consumed during the day – in batteries. When other devices plugged into the power system require more power than is currently available from the PV array, the MPPT drains energy from those batteries in order to make up the lack. MPPT charge controllers are quickly becoming more affordable and are more common in use now than ever before. The benefits of MPPT regulators are greatest during cold weather, on cloudy or hazy days or when the battery is deeply discharged. Solar MPPTs can also be used to drive motors directly from solar panels. The benefits seen are huge, especially if the motor load is continuously changing. This is due to the fact that the AC impedance across the motor is related to the motor's speed. The MPPT will switch the power to match the varying resistance.
