Photovoltaic systems are classified as non-linear systems. On the other hand, the characteristics of photovoltaic cells are non-linear. For this reason, researchers use several methods of maximum power monitoring (MPPT) to improve the performance of photovoltaic system. It is therefore necessary to use an adaptation stage between the photovoltaic generator (GPV) and the load to…
