Abstract

Electrical energy from solar panels can be used to supply electrical loads directly or stored in batteries. However, the produced electrical power is highly dependent on the absorption of solar energy. The sun's movement also causes variations in the absorption of solar energy by solar panels. This study was aimed to increase the output voltage of the solar panel by applying a Brushless Direct Current (BLDC) motor as a boost converter that could overcome the voltage drop due to variations in the absorption of sunlight intensity. The research method was carried out by developing a series of BLDC motors as an electrodynamic boost converter. Thus, the induced voltage generated by the stator coil when the rotor rotated could be used to increase the output voltage of the solar panel. The results showed that the BLDC motor was able to produce an induced voltage to increase the output voltage of the solar panel. That could continuously supply the electrical load and speed up storing electrical energy into the battery. This research can be used as an alternative source of electrical energy from the potential of solar energy as new renewable energy.
