Abstract-- An implementation of a digitally controlled standalone PV power supply consisting of PV array, battery and
inverter is presented. Peak power tracking using Incremental
conductance algorithm and four state battery charging with
temperature compensation are described. Some simulation
results are presented.

where:
Impp - is current at maximum power point
Vmpp - is voltage at maximum power point
Isc - is short circuit current
Voc - is open-circuit voltage of module
Modules manufacturers normally provide Isc, Impp, Voc,
Vmpp and I-V characteristics parameters at Standard Test
Conditions (STC) of AM1.5, 1kW/m2 and 25C. Table I
shows data at STC for a 80W PHOTOWATT which is used
in experiments. Data are obtained from module datasheet.

III. MPPT ALGORITHM
Simulation results in section II shows that the power
supplied by PV module depends upon the insolation, cell
temperature and module voltage. MPPT device is required
to extract maximum power from the PV module.
Several MPPT methods had been reported [2-5].
Comparative study made by [5] shows that incremental
conductance (IncCond) algorithm tracks fast the MPP under
rapid changing atmospheric conditions. IncCond algorithm
can be best described by the flowchart of Fig. 8 at every
MPP sampling.
