Abstract :

in this work we built a smart PV SOLAR system to be used in Agricultural areas in Iraq. This system is very efficient to be used in urban and far areas. This research deals with the design and simulation of a simple but efficient photovoltaic water pumping system. It provides theoretical studies of photovoltaics and modeling techniques using equivalent electric circuits. The system employs the maximum power point tracker (MPPT). The investigation includes discussion of various MPPT algorithms and control methods. The work decides on the output sensing direct control method because it requires fewer sensors. This allows a lower cost system. Comparisons with the system without MPPT in terms of total energy produced and total volume of water pumped per day. The results validate that MPPT can significantly increase the efficiency and theperformance of PV water pumping system compared to the system without MPPT.
