Abstract

In order to solve the problem of low photoelectric conversion efficiency in solar power generation, a solar photovoltaic power tracking system based on PLC is proposed. This system can make directional adjustments when the sun's direction change, height and angle changes, so it can improve the conversion efficiency of photovoltaic modules. Finally, simulates with PVSystem, proves that the efficiency of using photovoltaic power tracking system is 30% higher than that of fixed solar cell system.
