Abstract

Solar PV module is one of the most viable options for harvesting the ever resourceful form of renewable energy in Indonesia, as Indonesia is a tropical country. Processing the electricity generated from solar PV modules demands proper methods to produce higher efficiency. Among known methods, maximum power point tracking (MPPT) is the most interesting yet challenging as it can produce much higher efficiency compared to traditional PWM or no controller. This thesis is focused on developing and testing WiFi-based MPPT controller that is capable of wireless monitoring and controlling of solar PV power plant. MPPT uses a buck converter to regulate the voltage input from the solar PV module to a voltage level demanded by the load with minimum loss. The voltage is regulated to dynamically depending on the charging state of the battery, while still tracking for peak power. The battery is used to power the loads, which can be turn on and off electronically or wirelessly. The MPPT method is successfully implemented and is able to achieve efficiency as high as 88% - 94.7%.
