2.1 The Dynamic Optimization Problem
Chapter 1 was extensively dedicated to the discussion of the main aspects concerning the current vs. voltage characteristics of a PV generator and its dependency on the exogenous uncontrollable temperature and sun irradiance variables. The in-depth analysis has shown evidence that the joint variation of temperature and irradiance, as well as the occurrence of drift phenomena that arise along the PV system lifetime, about 25 years, makes the position of the maximum power point (MPP) varying in a wide area. As a consequence, a direct connection of the PV generator to the input port of a power processing system imposing a constant voltage level would be a simple but poor ...
