Abstract
The output power induced in the photovoltaic modelling depends on solar radiation and temperature of the solar cells. Therefore, to maximize the efficiency of the renewable energy system, it is necessary to track the maximum power point of the array. This paper presents modelling and simulation of a grid connected photovoltaic (PV) system with maximum power point tracking (MPPT). The system composed of a PV array, boost converter with MPPT, load. The proposed one or more of the photovoltaic is break down, the switches will be one or off for find the maximum power point we used the method P&O. We propose a new method of maximum power point tracking for photovoltaic system. It uses a sampling measure of the PV array power and voltage then determines an optimal increment required to have the optimal operating voltage which permits maximum power tracking.
