Performance Evaluation of an Autonomous Photovoltaic System for Recharging Electrical Vehicle Batteries

Performance Evaluation of an Autonomous Photovoltaic System for Recharging Electrical Vehicle Batteries

– This paper deals with the performance evaluation of an autonomous photovoltaic system for recharging (with electrical power produced by photovoltaic panels) Lithium-ion batteries for an electrical vehicle. In this system, the power flow control is performed via a DC-DC converter using a Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) technique. The performance evaluation is according to two operation modes: under degraded and optimal conditions
