Optimized and smart control of photovoltaic system with batteries in a standalone application
Abstract
The subject of our study is the optimization and smart control of an isolated photovoltaic system. To achieve this goal, we have used a power management control (PMC) system to govern the examined system, relying on fuzzy logic control (FLC) and specified decision criteria. The PMC protects the batteries against deep discharges and overloads, ensuring that the load receives uninterrupted power. Using fuzzy logic control, the PMC can efficiently adapt to changing conditions and make decisions to improve system performance. The studied system consists of solar panels and batteries interconnected with a converter enabling the bi-directional flow of current. This feature facilitates the charging and discharging of the batteries under various meteorological conditions. Two different algorithms have been used for power optimization. The findings demonstrate good performance of the proposed approach utilizing the fuzzy logic control method. These findings were consistent across two diverse profiles, underscoring the efficacy of our approach in diverse operating conditions.
