Solar Variable Step Incremental Conductance (IC) Maximum Power Point Tracker (MPPT) #18

Closed heliochronix closed 4 years ago

heliochronix commented 4 years ago

The algorithm for tracking the maximum power point (MPP) of a solar module, using incremental conductance with variable step size in order to reach the MPP as quickly as possible without crashing the curve.

Work for the MPPT algorithm is taking place in the 18-solar-mppt branch.
