Abstract
The Pangea project studies technical aspects regarding the power conversion systems used in photovoltaic technologies. Pangea will propose suitable power processing systems based on existing solutions provided by manufacturers and will study their adaptability to the particular characteristics of each particular technology.
The conclusion of the first studies will be later validated in two power conversion systems for two high concentration photovoltaic demonstrators developed by Abengoa Solar in cooperation with SEER. Several techniques for controlling the MPPT and the advantages of centralized and distributed control are also evaluated.
