Abstract :
The performance of photovoltaic system is affected by solar radiation, temperature, shading and cells configuration. This paper presents a suggested solution to cure the problems of the shade, by the use of the cascaded multilevel inverters adapted to the situation of non-identical continuous DC PV sources and commended by an appropriated PDPWM control.
