Max Power output of wind PMG with MPPT
Maximum Power Point Tracking or MPPT is an electronic system that allows grid tie inverters and battery chargers to get maximum power from the electricity source. These sources can be solar panels or other renewable sources like wind that is used by permanent magnet alternators.
MPPT is a technique through which maximum power is obtained. For wind generators, a controller compares the output of the pm alternator and compares it with the battery voltage. MPPT changes the electrical output voltage and current levels. This available power is provided to the battery in the form of increased current. MPPT detects the optimal power that can be obtained from the system and thus makes changes in the voltage.
