Abstract

This final year project report describes the analysis of the Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) for Building Attached Photovoltaic (BAPV) at Pusat Islam Tun Abang Salahuddin (PITAS). MPPT is the main significant in this project as the efficiency for the conversion of the solar energy to the electrical energy is very low, thus it makes the MPPT becomes very important key as to increase the system efficiency. Renewable energy in the future is becoming more important as the non-renewable energy is estimated to finish in a few decades and take a lot of time to reproduce again. Availability of renewable resources depending on the latitude and longitude of the location, such as at the equator receive more sunlight compared to Southern and Northern atmosphere. Towards to the end of this final year project, BAPV has been selected as it is the new versatile way of modern technology that can benefit for long-term financial from harvesting available solar energy and at the same time being attached the existing building. In other word, BAPV will be applied at the PITAS roof instead using common solar panels after consideration on the BAPV characteristics. PITAS location is selected for this project because it is one of the buildings in Universiti Malaysia Sarawak (UNIMAS) that was built according to Kiblah which facing sunrise and sunset. Therefore, two methods approach of MPPT is simulated in MATLAB software from their mathematical equation in the form of dynamic system consist of block diagram. The success of the simulation of each method will be compared to the fastest tracking the voltage and current from irradiance and temperature on-site data. Later on, the best method to determine MPPT for PITAS can be selected. The final step will be determining the area and angle for solar panels depending on the selected PITAS structure for BAPV installation. Thus, UNIMAS have the potential to be an electrical producer through PITAS with combination of MPPT and BAPV as for better renewable energy harvesting.
