“…The rise in environmental temperature has the effect of increasing the close-circuit current but in a marginally smaller proportion which will have no contribution to a noticeable increase in PV panel power output as seen in Figure 11. To validate the performance and functionality of the designed test chamber, a comparison was made between the experimental results and MATLAB simulation result [12] as shown in Figure 12. These comparisons are shown in Figure 13.…”

In this paper, an automated test setup for PV panels using LabVIEW and several microcontrollers (µCs) based embedded systems has been designed, tested, and implemented. This PV testing system has been characterized as fully automated and the only human intervention required is to install the PV panel and to set the required testing conditions. Several PV panels were evaluated and tested, the obtained results showed a high degree of accuracy and conformity with several testing schemes that have been carried out numerically, manually and manufacturer specifications. The designed system is characterized by a high-performance standard with accuracy, precision, and resolution (9 mV / 1.8 mA) that is good enough to test any PV panel of 12 V and 24 V rating. This system can test and calculate the maximum power point for any PV panel operating at any given working condition by applying different amounts of solar irradiance from 0 W/m2 to 1000 W/m2 to simulate the amount of solar irradiation at any time and everywhere on earth. This system also mimics the environment temperature by providing ambient temperature ranged from 0 °C to 50 °C to simulate the variation of weather around the year.

“…). An inverter converts a DC input supply voltage into a symmetric AC voltage of desired magnitude and frequency [16]. The single-phase voltage source inverter in this system converts the fixed DC voltage (48 V) from the DC-DC boost converter into a single-phase AC voltage (48 V) with a fixed frequency of 50 Hz.…”

This paper presents the design and dynamic modelling of a hybrid power system for a house in Nigeria. Thermal modelling of the house under consideration is carried out using BEopt software to accurately study the heat loss through the walls, windows, doors, and roof of the house. The analysis of this thermal model is used to determine hourly load data. Design of an optimum hybrid power system for the house is done with HOMER Pro software. The hybrid power system is made up of a diesel generator and a stand-alone PV system. The proposed PV system consists of PV arrays, DC–DC boost converter, MPPT controller, single-phase full-bridge inverter, inverter voltage mode controller (PI controller), and single-phase step-up transformer. Dynamic simulation of the proposed PV system component of the hybrid power system is carried out in MATLAB/Simulink environment to study the power quality, harmonics, load impact, voltage transients, etc. of the system, and the simulation results are presented in the paper.

In this paper, a solar PV powered DC microgrid is proposed and designed for Umuokpo Amumara in Nigeria with 800 households and a number of community installations which include churches, schools, shops, and a water pumping system. The appropriate sizes of system components are determined to meet the all-time load demand. A Techno-economic feasibility study was carried out in Homer Pro to determine the energy needs of the community and as well the system size and configuration that best suits the community. The energy requirement of the community was obtained to be 3.16MWh/day. The battery storage system was also sized in this work and a battery system capacity of 21,944Ah was able to meet the community energy requirement for up to a day without renewable energy supply. The dynamic model of proposed the microgrid was simulated in MATLAB/SIMULINK to observe the system's dynamic response in view of the power quality, load impact, and battery storage charging. The results obtained from the simulation depicted a stand-alone DC microgrid that is capable of meeting the daily electrical energy requirements of the system with good voltage stability. The PV system used in the system could function at maximum power conditions even with variation in the weather conditions. This was achieved by employing the Incremental Conductance MPPT system.
