Global electricity demand is increasing with the rising population and rapid urbanization. Building Integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) system is a new method of renewable energy generation where solar photovoltaic (PV) modules are integrated into the building surfaces such as façade, shades, windows, roofs, and tiles. BIPV systems reduce the urban energy demand. Utilization of vertical surfaces makes the BIPV system a preferable choice where land scarcity affects the implementation of large PV systems. The economic viability depends on the maximum power generated by the BIPV array. In urban environments, the BIPV arrays experience severe partial shading conditions (PSCs). The PSCs cause mismatch losses, reducing the global maximum power of the BIPV array and efficiency. Fixed array configurations such as series-parallel (SP), total-cross-tied (TCT), triple-tied (TT), and quarter-tied (QT) are designed to solve this issue. The cross ties across the rows of the BIPV array improve the performance at the expense of more wiring. Researchers proposed various optimal array configurations with different shading patterns. This research attempts to generalize the design of the BIPV array configurations by considering the trade-off between wiring requirements and shading losses. The performance of SP, TT, QT, and TCT configurations under four different shading conditions is simulated with the proposed BIPV array design algorithm. A 9 × 8 BIPV array of 3.6 kW is considered. QT configuration reduces the wiring requirement by 10.45% compared to TCT and improves up to 8.43% maximum power than SP. The fill factor is improved to 48.49%, and the mismatch loss is limited to 34.10%. Therefore, QT and TCT are considered favorable configurations for BIPV array design. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper presents the MPPT algorithm for the proposed hybrid energy system, i.e., PV and wind systems, and is tested for grid-connected and standalone utilities. This study's major objective is to maximize the power output and enhance the power quality of the hybrid renewable energy technologies that have been created. In the literature, many research scholars have worked in the field of MPPT calculations for PV and wind systems, which increases the number of publications in the field of control calculations for hybrid power systems. This study pays attention to designing a controller based on MPPT for extracting maximum energy from wind and PV energy systems. The suggested algorithm is tested in grid and standalone modes, considering variable weather conditions. The proposed system is designed for 500 W solar and wind plants with the usual step-up converter and tested in MATLAB software to judge the efficacy of the suggested controller designed for MPPT. In this work, the suggested radial basis function network is implemented in wind and PV facilities via MPPT technique-based ANN control to obtain the maximum power by using fuzzy controllers.

CRITICAL analysis , *RENEWABLE energy sources - Abstract
On-grid and off-grid building integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) systems require a large size BIPV array (LSBA) as their major renewable energy generator. Partial Shading (PS) significantly contributes to power loss in LSBA. One effective solution to mitigate the adverse effect of PS in LSBA is the application of fixed or static BIPV array configurations (BIPV-ACs). This research article critically compares the different fixed BIPV-ACs for modelling, designing and critical analysis of LSBA. Different existing and proposed fixed BIPV-ACs are modelled and simulated in MATLAB/Simulink under six dissimilar cases of PS patterns. Further, the performance is investigated in terms of global maximum power point (G-M-PP), mismatch loss (ML), fill factor (FF), efficiency (η), relative power loss (RPL) and relative power gained (RPG) to identify the best BIPV-AC. Experimental justification of simulation results under two PS pattern cases is reported. The best BIPV-ACs with high G-M-PP and low ML are Total-Cross-Tied (TCT), Triple-Tied (TT), Modified Triple-Tied (M-TT) and Hybrid Bridge-Linked Total-Cross-Tied (H-BL-TCT). Finally, the comprehensive critical analysis reveals that the H-BL-TCT array is the best performing array with low ML, high FF and η, and high G-M-PP with low wiring requirements than the TCT array. The simulation results conclude that the H-BL-TCT array improves G-M-PP by 6.40 %, reduces ML by 4.23 %, and improves FF & η by 4.58 % and 0.54 %. The experimental results infer that the H-BL-TCT array improves G-M-PP by 0.83 %, reduces ML by 0.75 %, and improves FF & η by 0.88 % and 0.09 %. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The demand for electricity is rapidly rising, and renewable energy sources are becoming increasingly important for maintaining the electric system and servicing isolated demands. Tidal energy, wind energy, and solar energy (SE) are all forms of renewable energy. The solar power system is free of pollution, and enormous volumes of solar radiation reach the earth's surface. Photovoltaic (PV) systems are taking a leading role as solar-based energy sources because of their unique advantages. But in this, the cost of power generation is an important issue since the existing research methods aren't effective. So that this research methodology uses the Cognitive Marine Predators Algorithm (CMPA) based cost-effective PV power generation system and utilization. In this research, first, the design variables, constraints, and the PV modelling is explained. After that, the objective function is determined here. The main objective function is the generation of the cost function and the power loss function. At last, the cost-effective power generation system is designed by the CMPA. In this CMPA, the determined objective functions are considered as the fitness function and the input are the design variables. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Renewable energy sources such as photovoltaic (PV) and wind energies are integrated into the grid due to their low global emissions and higher power conversion efficiency techniques. Grid-connected inverters are the core components of distributed generation networks. However, several harmonic current and voltage variations affect the performance of circuits in grid-connected networks. These issues can be easily resolved using passive filters, static vector generators, and dynamic energy filters (APFs). In higher-level units, the cost, dimensions, and weight of passive filters increase proportionally. The purpose of this research is to evaluate advanced APFs for reducing power switches and grid-connected weight, cost, and scale. Several studied APF inverter topologies, including single-phase, three-phase AC–AC, back-to-back, and common parameters, have been considered. Cost-effective solutions such as PV-based transformers based on APF, fewer inverters, multiple and multifunctional inverters, and wind-assisted conversion systems have been studied.

The most installed Renewable Energy Sources (RES) in micro-grids (MG) are Photovoltaic (PV) power and wind power. Due to the intermittent behaviour of renewable sources, parallel operation of RES and battery storage known as hybrid system is important particularly in remote micro-grids to reduce the fuel consumption by diesel generators and continuity of supply to the load. In this paper, multilevel inverter called Packed E-Cell (PEC) is used for parallel operation of RES and battery storage optimally for micro-grid applications. The PEC requires less components compared to other Multi-level inverters (MLI) topology with relatively low total harmonic distortion (THD). Further, selective harmonic technique based on optimization principle is used to enhance the harmonic profile using low frequency switching technique. The 3rd and 5th harmonics are eliminated using Genetic Algorithm (GA) optimization technique. The simulation-based analysis is done using Simulink/MATLAB and the results obtained for THD in the output current and voltage are presented and discussed in the paper. A comparative analysis is also presented with high frequency modulation technique phase disposition pulse width modulation (PDPWM) technique. The experimental validation of the proposed scheme is done using Typhoon HIL (hardware in loop). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

India is one of the countries that are developing at a very fast rate. To meet the need for this rapid growth, there is a huge need of energy. India is still predominantly an agricultural based economy. To meet this huge energy need, generation of power is needed at an exorbitant rate. The power generation of India is majorly dependent on coal. India imports coal from other countries which results in an increase in the per unit cost of energy produced. Thermal power plants also have a major disadvantage of producing greenhouse gases and polluting the environment. This has resulted in an increased stress in renewable energy generation. To ensure energy security, there is a need for finding out the right mix of energy produced by various energy sources. A model is being developed to create a long term energy plan considering the Indian economy to ensure energy security. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
