Abstract

The increasing demand for sustainable energy solutions has driven research in photovoltaic (PV) systems and their integration with power electronics for efficient energy conversion. Despite advancements, challenges remain in optimizing PV system efficiency, particularly in maximum power point tracking (MPPT) and DC-DC converter design. This study presents a simulation model of a solar cell circuit integrated with a DC-DC boost converter, implemented using MATLAB/Simulink. The proposed system enhances energy conversion efficiency by employing the Perturb and Observe (P&O) MPPT algorithm, ensuring optimal power extraction under varying environmental conditions. Findings indicate a significant improvement in voltage regulation and power output stability, contributing to the feasibility of large-scale solar energy integration. These results highlight the importance of advanced MPPT techniques and efficient converter design for maximizing solar energy utilization in grid-connected and standalone applications.
