Overview of DC/DC Converters for Concentrating Photovoltaics (CPVs)

Résumé

With energy efficiencies close to two times higher than traditional photovoltaic (PV), concentrated photovoltaic (CPV) systems represent a promising solution for solar power generation. In the same way, the converging Levelized Cost of Energy (LCOE) of both technologies favors interest toward CPV systems. In order to assess more clearly the potential of this technology, an up-to-date evaluation of the power electronic conversion techniques used in CPV to increase the yielded energy is crucial. This assessment not only sheds light on the latest advancements, but also provides insights into design trade-offs, performance limitations, and potential areas for improvement in CPV systems. This work focuses on the DC/DC converters used as an intermediary stage of conversion between the panels and a central grid-tied inverter. Electrical and economical metrics are used to compare actual converters developed and presented in a comprehensive literature review.
