Abstract
This essay discusses how the Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) concepts that are offline, could be used with water cooling to improve the work of photovoltaic (PV) solar panels. In contrast to traditional real-time Maximum Power Point warping (MPPT) methods, offline approaches approximate the Maximum power point (MPPT) to different conditions including sunlight irradiance and temperature with known (pre-calculated) data or algorithms. This eliminates the requirement of constant supervision and it suggests a simpler and cheaper method of power optimization. Simultaneously, a water-cooling system is adopted that will keep the temperature of the solar panels in the best possible work conditions, since very high temperatures can significantly lower their efficiency. Water is spread across the surface of the panel absorbing excessive heat and inhibiting the degradation of performance caused by overheating. The water also serves to minimize dust build-up, raising the total energy take-up. The joint strategy of offline MPPT and water cooling show a great enhancement in generating energy, especially in the warm environments. The solution is an efficient, low maintenance approach to solar panel systems, and a bright avenue into better reliability and performance of renewable energy installations
