2. Maximum power point tracking - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_power_point_tracking

   Power/Voltage-curve of a partially shaded PV system, with marked local and global MPP. Maximum power point tracking (MPPT), [1] [2] or sometimes just power point tracking (PPT), [3] [4] is a technique used with variable power sources to maximize energy extraction as conditions vary. [5]

3. Power optimizer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_optimizer

   A power optimizer is a DC to DC converter technology developed to maximize the energy harvest from solar photovoltaic or wind turbine systems. They do this by individually tuning the performance of the panel or wind turbine through maximum power point tracking, and optionally tuning the output to match the performance of the string inverter (DC to AC inverter).

4. Solar inverter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_inverter

   Solar inverters use maximum power point tracking (MPPT) to get the maximum possible power from the PV array. [3] Solar cells have a complex relationship between solar irradiation, temperature and total resistance that produces a non-linear output efficiency known as the I-V curve. It is the purpose of the MPPT system to sample the output of the ...

5. Photovoltaics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photovoltaics

   These modules perform maximum power point tracking (MPPT) for each module individually, measure performance data for monitoring, and provide additional safety features. Such modules can also compensate for shading effects, wherein a shadow falling across a section of a module causes the electrical output of one or more strings of cells in the ...

6. Pulse-width modulation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulse-width_modulation

   Along with maximum power point tracking (MPPT), it is one of the primary methods of controlling the output of solar panels to that which can be utilized by a battery. [2] PWM is particularly suited for running inertial loads such as motors, which are not as easily affected by this discrete switching.

7. Photovoltaic system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photovoltaic_system

   A photovoltaic system, also called a PV system or solar power system, is an electric power system designed to supply usable solar power by means of photovoltaics.It consists of an arrangement of several components, including solar panels to absorb and convert sunlight into electricity, a solar inverter to convert the output from direct to alternating current, as well as mounting, cabling, and ...

8. Grid-tie inverter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grid-tie_inverter

   The energy lost during inversion is for the most part converted into heat. Consequently, for an inverter to output its rated power it must have a power input that exceeds its output. For example, a 5000 W inverter operating at full power at 95% efficiency requires an input of 5,263 W (rated power divided by efficiency).
