Abstract

The paper presents the results of an experimental study of the efficiency of the integrated controllers of PWM and MPPT PV/batteries, which are part of an autonomous photovoltaic power plant. The dependences of the efficiency on the hourly sums of solar radiation are represented, which can be used to calculate the productivity of autonomous photovoltaic systems with an hourly integration step. The operational features of the controllers during low-level periods of solar radiation are considered.
