Abstract
A solar power generation system includes a solar module, a power converter, and a control device. The power converter is configured to control an output voltage of the solar module such that the output voltage matches a target output voltage. The control device is configured to determine a lower limit value of the target output voltage based on the following general formula. In the general formula, Idenotes a used light intensity, and T denotes a temperature. V(I, T) denotes the lower limit value of the target output voltage. V(I, T) denotes an open-circuit voltage of the solar module. The number of the solar cells connected in series is denoted by n. V(T) denotes a positive value of a reverse breakdown voltage of one solar cell. A tolerable error is denoted by α.
