Abstract
The photovoltaic system is affected by various conditions such as temperature and irradiance. Because non-uniform irradiation and partial shading conditions affect the entire string of cells connected in series, a bypass diode is used to bypass the current flow normally. In order to find the maximum power point in partial shade conditions, it is necessary to estimate various methods of maximum power point tracking. In this paper, the hybrid method of MPPT using Lambert W function and perturbation & observation algorithm is proposed under partial shading conditions. The simulation results are obtained using MATLAB/Simulink and shows the improvement of the accuracy of MPPT.
