Abstract : Insufficiency of power generation due to lack of fossil fuel and lack of cost-effectiveness in rural areas have become a challenge to be solved in order to get better utilisation of people’s revenue source. The single solution to focus the use of renewable energy sources is to generate electricity with these sources during the generation shortage through other sources to meet the consumer demand. Operation of grid integration of photovoltaic power system is analysed and its performance under various weather conditions. The projected Fuzzy logic based MPPT, requires the sensing of the DC voltage output of PV panel and solar irradiation. The planned fuzzy control based maximum power point tracker (MPPT) has been simulated using MATLAB environment. The simulation results are evaluating the performance of the proposed model with changing solar irradiation conditions. The simulation results are compared with that of existing model for establishing the effectiveness of the proposed model.
