Abstract

In this paper, a novel photovoltaic (PV) emulating scheme for testing maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithms and PV inverters have been proposed. It is constructed by the parallel connection of conventional solar panels with a DC power supply operating in current source mode. The advantages...
