An Analysis of State of Art Techniques for Solar PV Powered Water Pumping System

This paper presents an analysis of state of art techniques for solar PV powered water pumping systems (SPVP-WPS). The paper includes a detailed classification of SPVPWPS, discussion on important topologies of the SPVPWPS and discussion on major challenges faced by solar PV pumping systems. At the end of the paper, the simulated model of the standalone SPVPWPS using sensor-less BLDC motor drive without battery backup had been presented.
