Aquarium pump drive by solar cell using maximum power point tracking (MPPT)

This thesis proposes the implementation of solar panel as an alternative that could generates electricity from sunlight exposure. The renewable energy that produced by solar could be used in supplying electricity to electrical equipment as well as becoming an alternative source apart from the availa...
