Abstract


Photovoltaic (PV) technology is fast becoming prominent alternative source of energy due to its renewability and environmental friendliness. PV operations rely mainly on solar irradiation which determines the quantity of generated power. Partial Shading condition which is caused mostly by environmental factors such as passing cloud hinders PV from receiving optimum irradiation and consequent reduction in the power generated from the PV. Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) has been studied and developed to obtain optimum power that PV could generate. This paper reviewed techniques of generating maximum power from a PV technology under shading conditions.
