Abstract

This article presents a control strategy to extract the maximum power point (MPP) for a solar a photovoltaic (PV) system. The Perturb and Observe (P&O) technique is used as a DC converter controller to operate the photovoltaic panels at the highest power value in different weather conditions. To improve the quality and performance of MPPT control (P&O), the conventional converter is replaced by a multicell converter to achieve these improvements. The simulation results showed good performance of the suggested converter. The voltage balance of the two floating capacitors is successfully obtained and an extraction of the maximum power is obtained.
