Solar Cell Simulation Model for Photovoltaic Power Generation System

The development of the solar cell simulation model is very popular today due to the extensive research in the solar panel maximum power point tracking (MPPT) which requires a robust model that could be integrated with converters and inverters and could work under various load conditions. For that purpose, the accuracy and compatibility of the model with other power electronics are major concerns for the development. In this paper, a comprehensive but straightforward solar cell model is introduced. This model minimizes mathematical approximation during the output current and voltage derivation process and is specially designed for integrating with converters and inverters. Simulation results are given for validating the proposed model.
