Abstract

    The decline and inadequacy of fossil fuels have accelerated the exploration and use of renewable energy sources to meet increasing energy demands. In addition, the use of fossil fuels hurts the environment. For this reason, one of the most important renewable energy sources that are coming to the forefront of research is the sun.

    Theoretical and general information about solar energy, which is a renewable energy source, such as power generation, storage, main components, power quality of solar energy, and problems with sources, are studied and explained in detail.

    A photovoltaic system has been designed, which is widely used in solar energy. The system is formed by increasing the output voltage to the circuit fed by a panel in a certain ratio. In this process, the voltage is raised to the desired voltage level in the case of direct current with the help of the DC-DC Boost Converter.
