Abstract
The global primary
energy demands are increasing rapidly, which arrives at almost double the
growth rate of energy consumption (Senjyu, Nakaji, Uezato, & Funabashi,
2005). An enhanced network-based control structure is essential, especially to
get rid of the frequency deviations, power sharing errors, and stability
concerns associated with the conservative droop control mainly in the micro
grids (Jiang, Cao, Li, & Peng, 2012). One of the solutions for the issues
is, to introduce renewable energy, among others PV and wind energy are clean
and abundantly available in nature (Faranda & Leva, 2008). The Photovoltaic
(PV) systems output power fluctuates according to the irradiation and
temperature (weather conditions) (Kahrobaeian & Mohamed, 2015). Irregular
PV output power results in frequency variations in the power systems,
especially when the penetration is high. A photovoltaic (PV) array has
nonlinear I-V (current-voltage) characteristics and its output power varies
with solar insolation level, besides the ambient temperature. Only one point,
called Maximum Power Point (MPP), exists on the P–V (power–voltage) curve, in
which the power is maximum and the MPP fluctuates if there are changes in
atmospheric conditions. The maximization of power output that takes place with
greater efficiency becomes significant (Rao, Tulasiram, & Brahmaiah,2005).
MPPT is the technique in use for extracting maximum power which is made
available from the PV module (Subudhi & Pradhan, 2013). In this paper, a
new hybrid algorithm is proposed combining the features of BFOA and Particle
Swarm Optimization (PSO) for tuning PID controller, to give the better output
from the solar power. PSO-BFOA based Incremental Conductance method to reduce
sustained oscillations and fast searching of MPPT Computer simulations
illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach compared to that of basic
versions of PSO and BFO with FPGA. The results show that there are very good
correlations between the controller parameters and the process parameters.
