A Photovoltaic (PV) cell, a DC/DC boost converter and a DC/AC inverter constitutes the system. The internal mechanism of solar cell with diagram & approximation of PV cell are described.
The first step in the design of a photovoltaic system is determining if the site you are considering has good solar potential. Some questions you should ask are: Is the installation site free from shading by nearby trees, buildings or other obstructions? Can the PV system be oriented for good performance?
Finally, by using DC/AC inverter, the output voltage of DC/DC converter is regulated and synchronized with the grid. Simulation results show that the proposed model can effectively realize the actual physical characteristics of a grid-connected PV system by matching the phase of grid voltage to generated photovoltaic current.

The heart of a photovoltaic system is the solar module. Many photovoltaic cells are wired together by the manufacturer to produce a solar module. When installed at a site, solar modules are wired together in series to form strings. Strings of modules are connected in parallel to form an array.
