Abstract:

The performance of a photovoltaic (PV) array connected to a boost converter plays a vital role in harnessing solar energy efficiently and integrating it with the electrical grid. This abstract summarizes the key aspects of the performance evaluation of such a system.The PV array, comprising multiple solar modules, converts solar energy into electrical energy. The boost converter, an essential component of the system, steps up the EMF of the array to match the grid requirements.Efficiency is a crucial performance metric, representing the system's ability to convert solar energy into usable electrical power. By optimizing the power extraction at the appropriate power point of the PV array, the boost ac to dc system enhances system efficiency. Power quality considerations are equally important in grid integration. Techniques such as soft-switching and advanced control algorithms can be employed to mitigate power losses and improve power quality. The boost converter's control strategies, such as pulse width modulation (PWM), voltage feedback loops, and current control methods, play a critical role in achieving a fast and accurate response. MATLAB/SIMULINK model represents the enhancement of volatge levels with respect to input given.
