Abstract : The performance of a photovoltaic (PV) array is affected significantly by several issues like shade intensity, array configuration, array size, and varying climatic conditions. Partial shaded (PS) conditions reduce the array output and increase the mismatch losses of the PV array. Hence, PV array size is to be reconfigured under such situations for satisfactory performance. This chapter mainly focuses on various methods like bypass diode configuration, tracking the maximum power, array configuration, and different reconfiguration strategies. These methods are used to reduce the effect of PS conditions and improve the output of the PV system.
