Control and Optimization for a Photovoltaic Pumping System Using Induction Motor Vector Control

By harnessing the available solar energy, a study was conducted to develop a water pumping system using this renewable energy source. Our main objective was to analyze the operation of a photovoltaic pumping system using a solar energy, enabling water storage in a reservoir. This system utilizes a centrifugal pump powered by an asynchronous motor, which is controlled by a voltage inverter. We also considered the comparison between classical MPPT the PSO method and the genetic optimization algorithm method.
