Abstract :
In the context of renewable energy, this study treats the case of the conversion of solar energy, which is one part of non pollutant energy, to electrical one. Maximizing methods of the generated power is discussed in this paper. Thus, the case of solar panel is studied and a comparison between the ‘perturb and observe’ control method and the ‘incremental conductance’ control method in order to maximize the output power are given, analyzed and discussed.
