I. INTRODUCTION
In todays world conventional energy sources are
insufficient to fulfill the increasing electric energy demand.
Due to increase in energy utilization and population growth,
conventional energy sources are incapable of supplying the
required power. There is imbalance between demand and
supply. This has led to serious energy crisis which is an
important global issue today. A sustainable, reliable energy
source is required. There are many environment friendly,
everlasting sources such as solar, wind, tidal, biomass, ocean
thermal etc. Out of these renewable sources, solar energy is
available in abundance and is the cleanest form of renewable
energy.
Due to high cost, marginal reliability, low system efficiency
and operational limits, the rate of adoption and popularity of
solar PV could not reach the expected momentum compared
to other forms of renewable sources in the initial phase. But
now since it has gained the desired momentum, it is essential
to provide solutions with high system efficiency, high
reliability and simplified operations at an affordable cost [1].
Solar PV panels output power depends on solar irradiance,
temperature and the connected load. In order to extract the
maximum power and maximum energy yield from solar PV
panel, different maximum power point tracking (MPPT)
techniques are used. They can be mechanical or electrical
