TU Delft scientists integrate power electronics for MPPT in solar modules

A research team in the Netherlands investigated how copper planar air-core inductors can yield the required inductor properties to support sub-module power conversion in PV modules. The scientists claim that implementing MPPT at the sub-module level can increase the panel's tolerance to shade. Researchers from the Netherlands' Delft University of Technology have sought to embed power electronics in photovoltaic modules with the aim of increasing the shade tolerance of panels via maximum power point tracking (MPPT). Their work consisted of conducting a feasibility study on whether copper planar ...
