Abstract :
Fast change of the irradiance conditions entails failure of the maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithm in a photovoltaic system (PVS). In this paper it is proposed the combination of a modified Perturb and Observe (P&O) distributed MPPT and an adaptive algorithm. The MPPT has been tested in case of hard mismatch conditions through simulation showing high performance in terms of efficiency.
