Abstract: This paper deals with the DC microgrid that can be controlled wirelessly and smart that can be used for the optimal usage of power that is taken from the Distributed Renewable Energy Generators (DREGs). The usage of the solar PV array that provides the power for commercial lighting, Direct Current loads inclusive of LED lighting and ceiling fans that are incorporated into the given system here for microgrid without any problem is portrayed in this paper. Here we use perturb and observe technique of Maximum energy point tracker to obtain the most electricity and the DC to DC boost converter is used to enhance the voltage from the solar array. They are simulated in MATLAB/Simulink.
Keyword: Boost, Micro grid, MPPT Tracking.
