Particle Swarm Optimization Approach for MPPT-Based Charge Controller in Hybrid Renewable Systems
Keywords:
Renewable Energy system, PV Array, Wind SystemAbstract
As global energy demand continues to rise, renewable energy sources have become essential in narrowing the gap between supply and demand. However, the growing use of power electronic devices and non-linear loads in the grid introduces several power quality challenges. These issues—both in terms of energy scarcity and power quality—can be effectively addressed through the integration of inverters within renewable energy grid systems. This research focuses on the development and implementation of a hybrid renewable energy system that ensures a cost-effective and sustainable power supply to connected loads. Although integrating solar power with the conventional grid can be both complex and costly, the proposed system offers a practical, economical, and reliable solution. A charge controller is incorporated, utilizing a Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) algorithm based on Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) to enhance system efficiency.
