Solar energy is most admired alternative to traditional energy sources. Special attention is required to improve solar gathering techniques in mountainous regions like Sikkim, where sun availability is unreliable but irradiance level is high. This paper proposes a hardware model for smart autonomous selfadjusting solar panel whose output is fed to DC-DC Cascaded SEPIC-Boost Converter for high voltage renewable based applications. The developed renewable system is designed to adjust the panel in a position where maximum voltage is extracted. The output of the solar panel is fed to the DC-DC cascaded converter. A detailed circuit analysis is performed to evaluate the system's e ciency and voltage gain. The converter is examined with different duty cycles. The proposed converter generates 40 V DC output with 20 V DC input voltage from solar panel at 50% duty ratio and gives 90% e ciency. The feasibility of the converter is con rmed with results obtained from an experimental prototype.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
