How to gain maximum power from a solar cell?

To gain the maximum amount of power from the solar cell it should operate at the manximum power voltage. The maximum power voltage is further described by V MP, the maximum power voltage and I MP, the current at the maximum power point. The maximum power voltage occurs when the differential of the power produced by the cell is zero.

How to achieve maximum power point (MPP) in a PV module?

Therefore, the maximum power point (MPP) can be achieved in very few commutation steps if the control forces the PV module to work in temperature dependent optimal curve. Authors shows how this PV module temperature based MPPT is stable and converges to MPP for each temperature.
