The maximum power tracking problem and efficient energy utilization of a stand-alone photovoltaic array (PVA) feeding voltage controlled linear and nonlinear loads is studied. A novel and simple on-line fuzzy logic-based dynamic search, detection and tracking controller is developed to ensure...

The paper presents two low-cost photovoltaic utilization schemes (1–50 kW) for ventilation and air conditioning loads. Both schemes can be controlled by novel dynamic on-line power tracking regulator. This ensures maximum power utilization and energy efficiency under varying conditions of...
