Abstract :
This paper has reported a system developed for continuously measuring PV maximum power point (MPP) at high speed. The preliminary results obtained with the system show that MPP power is directly proportional to the insolation, while MPP voltage does not change much with the insolation. With the preliminary results, we inferred that the optimum MPPT time intervals for fine, cloudy and rainy days are about 35s, 7s and 15 s, respectively.
