Abstract

This paper presents a hybrid energy resources (HER) system consisting of solar PV, storage, and utility grid. It is a challenge in real time to extract maximum power point (MPP) from the PV solar under variations of the irradiance strength.  This work addresses challenges in identifying global MPP, dynamic algorithm behavior, tracking speed, adaptability to changing conditions, and accuracy. Shallow Neural Networks using the deep learning NARMA-L2 controller have been proposed. It is modeled to predict the reference voltage under different irradiance. The dynamic PV solar and nonlinearity have been trained to track the maximum power drawn from the PV solar systems in real time.


Moreover, the proposed controller is tested under static and dynamic load conditions. The simulation and models are done by using MATLAB/Simulink. The simulation results from the proposed NARMA-L2 controller have been compared with existing Perturb and observe PO-MPPT and Incremental Conductance INC -MPPT methods.
