Features: This book is one of the "High-Efficiency Power Conversion Application Series." It systematically introduces the basic principles, system composition, and practical applications of solar photovoltaic power generation. Chapter 1 mainly reviews the background, significance, and development status of photovoltaic power generation technology; Chapters 2 and 3 focus on elaborating the basic theory and main characteristics of photovoltaic cells; Chapter 4 introduces the types, structures, and principles of photovoltaic power generation systems; Chapter 5 discusses the maximum power point tracking (MPT) principles and algorithms for photovoltaic power generation systems; Chapters 6 and 7 respectively introduce photovoltaic energy storage and its charging/discharging modes, as well as the structure and principles of photovoltaic water pumps; Chapter 8 covers power electronic devices in photovoltaic power generation systems; Chapters 9 and 10 are dedicated to the simulation and case analysis of photovoltaic power generation systems. This book is available for professional technical personnel, technical management staff, and teachers and students of relevant disciplines in higher education who are engaged in the design, research, operation, and management of solar photovoltaic power generation systems. It can also serve as a graduate textbook for electrical engineering. This book is part of the High-Efficiency Power Conversion Application Series.
