Abstract :
In this paper, tracking speed of maximum power point tracking (MPPT) control of photovoltaic (PV) generation systems is investigated. To observe quick changes of the static characteristics of PV, a high-speed measurement system is developed. Ability of MPPT control is evaluated with voltage-current chart recorded by the proposed system at speed of about 100 charts per second. By the discussions, speedup of MPPT control is effective when especially the PV system is mounted on automobiles running on streets.
