  • Life Cycle Assessment of Electric Vehicle Considering Locally Generated and Stored Energy

    ABSTRACT: The potential of electric vehicles for reducing the harmful environmental impacts of road transport in everyday conditions has to be analyzed and evaluated. If electric vehicles shall realize their potential to reduce emissions and minimize the consumption of resources, then locally generated and stored energy could increase the use of renewable energy sources. A quantitative method is necessary […]

  • Contribution to Perturb and Observe Algorithm to Maximum Power Point Tracker for Photovoltaic Systems

    ABSTRACT: Traditionally, for the photovoltaic module work around its maximum output power is used a Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT). The MPPT is extremely important in photovoltaic systems its correct performance allows the best use of electrical power. Therefor the MPPT is an essential part of a photovoltaic system. In the most case the MPPT algorithm modify the duty […]
