Abstract :
Starting from a comparative study of the generated output power in several grid-connected PV system configurations, the work proposes a dynamic interconnection of photovoltaic (PV) modules depending on the irradiance distribution for a plant oriented configuration. Matlab/sup /spl reg// simulation results considering several static and dynamic irradiance distributions reveal that the maximum output power at the PV generator level obtained with this approach is similar to that obtained in the module integrated configuration.
