Abstract :
This paper aims to study the changes in output voltage, output current, output power and efficiency of INR MPPT Technique when connected to different converters such as CUK and SEPIC. The converters have merits and demerits when connected with controllers that will be pointed in this paper. Simulations results are analyzed and compared, afterwards conclusions are drawn. Works are carried out in Matlab platform.
