An Active Switching Circuit for Solar Cells: A circuit that changes the wiring configuration of solar cells to optimise the electrical power output of a solar panel

The electrical output of a solar panel can be optimised in several ways, through the inclusion of bypass diodes (BPDs) or to have a maximum power point (MPP) tracker or DC optimiser to ensure that the panel is always operating at its global MPP. However most of these systems have to be implemented externally to the panel. A new system, the...
