INTRODUCTION TO PROJECT
▸Nowadays, energy sectors are trying to improve them generation capacity and also the installed energy
capacity. Moreover, use of renewable energy sources are on demand for generation plants such as
Solar, Wind, Biomass and so on.
▸Here, for this Project major concern and focused on use and development of Artificial Intelligence
along with Renewable Energy (Solar) to come up with efficient, sustain, steady, long term,
economically good and most importantly environmental friendly energy generation.
▸Artificial Intelligence becomes more and more important in the energy industry and is having great
potential for the future design of the energy system. Typical areas of application are electricity trading,
smart grids, or the sector coupling of electricity, heat and transport. Prerequisites for an increased use
of AI in the energy system are the digitalization of the energy sector and a correspondingly large set
of data that is evaluable. AI helps make the energy industry more efficient and secure by analyzing and
evaluating the data volumes.
▸ Perturb and Observe calculation is straightforward and doesn’t require past information on the PV
generator qualities or the estimation of sun powered force and cell temperature and is anything but
difficult to execute with simple and computerized circuits.

CONVENTIONAL MPPT METHOD (P&O)
▸Perturb & Observe (P&O) is the simplest method. In
this we use only one sensor, that is the voltage sensor,
to sense the PV array voltage and so the cost of
implementation is less and hence easy to implement.
▸In this method the controller adjusts the voltage by a
small amount from the array and measures power; if
the power increases, further adjustments in that
direction are tried until power no longer increases.
▸This is called the perturb and observe method and is
most common, although this method can result in
oscillations of power output. The main advantages of
P&O algorithm are simple structure and ease of
implementation, with both stand-alone and grid-
connected systems, MPP tracking can be done with
very high efficiency. PV &VI Characteristics of P&O Method MPPT

CONCLUSION
▸ After all the discussion, this project is mainly focused on the different MPPT techniques
which are based on AI. Also, P&O, ANN, ANFIS and Fuzzy Logic method is described in
MATLAB Simulink.
▸ According to comparative study, ANFIS based AI technique is reach towards target due
to its analysis power in different conditions of irradiations and loads to the standalone
system. ANFIS fetched data from its given range of the different inputs of the voltage and
power from the PV panel.
▸ This proves that, ANFIS method is very much superior than using other methods because
of ANN and FUZZY Logic using comparison technique apart from using sustain and
reliable output given. Where, ANFIS provides smoothness and sharpness in output with
higher steady state condition along with higher rate of convergence in different layers and
complexity become smooth by itself.
