  • PV system, Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT), Perturb and Observe (P&O) Algorithm.
  • Solar photovoltaic (PV) systems have an advantage of conversion sun's energy to electrical energy without regulation and lower efficiency due to I-V nonlinear characteristics that exhibits in the PV cells. Essentially, There is a need to maximize power extraction from these cells with a maximum power point tracking (MPPT) techniques. The performance of MPPT Algorithm involves a presentation of the PV system model with a most suitable method, Perturbation and Observation (P&O). The P&O implementation is done by MATLAB simulating, which covers a PV cell connected to a controlled buck converter by MPPT algorithms. The achievement of the P&O algorithm with a higher efficiency as well as be able to fast MPP tracking at the Constant irradiation condition as well as with variable irradiation.
