Abstract :
This paper represents an effective design of a PV system with MPPT algorithm and phase change material. Application of MPPT algorithm and Phase change materials are two different techniques, but this paper intends to use these two techniques together in same PV system. Modelling of PV module, implementation of MPPT algorithm and selection of phase materials have been descried with best clarity. Finally a significant enhancement of PV power has been obtained using a SOLKAR 36 W PV module.
