Abstract— A renewable energy source plays an important role in electricity generation. Various
renewable energy sources like wind, solar, geothermal, ocean thermal, and biomass can be used for
generation of electricity and for meeting our daily energy needs. Energy from the sun is the best option
for electricity generation as it is available everywhere and is free to harness. On an average the sunshine
hour in India is about 6hrs annually also the sun shine shines in India for about 9 months in a year.
Electricity from the sun can be generated through the solar photovoltaic modules (SPV). The SPV comes
in various power output to meet the load requirement [1]. Maximization of power from a solar photo
voltaic module (SPV) is of special interest as the efficiency of the SPV module is very low. A peak power
tracker and DC-DC Boost Converter is used for Extracting the maximum power from the SPV module.
And simulation in PSIM software and hardware result is compare and solar panel maximum efficiencies
is increase nearby 85% using dither routine algorithm method use.

I. INTRODUCTION
Renewable energy sources play an important role in electricity generation. Various renewable energy
sources like wind, solar, geothermal, ocean thermal, and biomass can be used for generation of electricity
and for meeting our daily energy needs. Energy from the sun is the best option for electricity generation
as it is available everywhere and is free toharness. On an average the sunshine hour in India is about 6hrs
annually also the sun shine shines in India for about 9 months in a year. A worldwide concern for future
access to affordable, sustainable energy is driving the development of more efficient solar power
generation [2]. In any photovoltaic (PV) based system, the master controller is a critical component
responsible for the control of electricity flow between themodule, battery, loads, grid. The proposed for
maximum powerpoint tracking, boost converter, battery charging, and load control. The main elements
of maximum power point tracking system for dc-dc boost converter, battery charging circuit, PIC
controller which selects energy sources to continue supply the load. Using the simulation software PSIM
proposed boost converter topology with predictive control has been chosen.
The final simulation of dc-dc boost converter has been done, which was made in PSIM. It is shown that
the output voltage (30 Vdc) to supply the load and, to charge the battery ifsolar output power is greater

than the load power. The proposed control algorithm including the whole system control is implemented
on a low cost, microcontroller PIC16F690.solarsystem efficiency increase near 90%.

II. SIMULATION OF DC-DC BOOST CONVERTER IN PSIM


The boost converter, also known as the step-up converter, isanother switching converter that has the
same components as the buck converter, but this converter produces an output voltage greater than
the source. The ideal boost converter has the five basic components, namely a power semiconductor
switch, a diode, an inductor, a capacitor and a PWM controller. The placement of the inductor, the
switch and diode in the boost converter is different from that of the buck converter, which is shown in
the Fig.1.

The software to control the Maximum Power Point Converter can be broken into two algorithms: Current
Reduction and the dither routine, which are controlled via the Interrupt Service Routine (ISR). Both
algorithms manipulate the current of the solar panel via the Programmable Voltage reference generated
by the PIC16F690‟s 10-bit PWM [7].

Maximum power tracking logic and as a result we can tack maximum power at output (load) from solar
panel. Increase solar system efficiency is near the 90%. Shortcomings and execution efficiency for three
power-feedback type MPPT methods, including perturbation & observation, incremental conductance

specifications of the PV module after accomplishing the model of PV modules, the models of DC-DC boost
converter and MPPT systems are combined with it to complete the PV simulation system with the MPPT
function. The accuracy and execution efficiency for each MPPT algorithm can then be simulated under
different weather conditions after in system to use battery is charge with connected inverter to dc o/p
