Photovoltaic Partial Shading

This text comprehensively discusses the modeling of photovoltaic (PV) modules, PV array interconnections, multi-level inverters, distributed maximum power point tracking techniques, and static and dynamic PV array reconfiguration techniques. It gives a step-by-step procedure for hardware validation of the partial shading mitigation techniques.

This book:

Focuses on the impacts and mitigation techniques related to partial shading problems associated with PV systems. Presents a step-by-step guide for addressing partial shading problems in PV systems. Covers methods like array reconfiguration through Tom-Tom puzzle pattern and Arrow Sudoku pattern. Presents hardware validation of the partial shading mitigation techniques.Elaborates static and moving shading conditions in a detailed manner.It will serve as an ideal reference text for graduate students and academic researchers in the fields of electrical engineering, electronics and communication engineering, environmental engineering, and renewable energy.
