Abstract :
In Solar Home Systems and inverter systems as well as in some PV hybrid systems solar charge controllers are the central control unit regulating the overall energy flow within the system. Therefore it is a central and critical component which has to be selected carefully. Meanwhile several topologies dominate the world market. In this article, an overview with advantages and disadvantages is given.
