In order to increase the production of photovoltaic-based cleaner energy, the maximum power point tracking (MPPT) controller was employed. Because different MPPT algorithms have been adduced in the literature, it is mandatory to compare and differentiate them to select the most adequate MPPT for a particular application or to make suggestions for f...
Floating photovoltaic systems (FPVSs) are a modern concept for clean energy generation, which combine the existing PV systems with a floating structure. Such a combination enables achieving a higher efficiency of PV modules and a best management of land resources which ensures meeting energy requirements more effectively. In this paper, an experime...
One of the major challenges in photovoltaic (PV) systems is extracting the maximum power from the PV array, especially when they operate under partial shading conditions (PSCs).

The use of a maximum power point (MPP) tracking (MPPT) controller is required for photovoltaic (PV) systems to extract maximum power from PV panels. However, under partial shading conditions, the PV cells/panels do not receive uniform insolation due to several power maxima appear on the PV array's P–V characteristic, a global MPP (GMPP) and two or...

Due to its several powerful characteristics, the Grey Wolf Optimization (GWO) algorithm has recently become widely used in numerous optimization problems. In photovoltaic (PV) systems, power-voltage (P–V) curves present multiple maxima in case of partial shadow or modules mismatch which can be viewed as an optimization problem. In this paper, a GWO...
The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of different partial shading scenarios on a PV array’s characteristics in order to develop a simple and easy-to-implement GMPP controller that tracks the PV array’s global maximum power point (GMPP). The P-V characteristic of the PV array becomes more complicated under partial shading, owing to...
Un dispositif constitué d'un bracelet désinfectant pour les mains de son porteur ainsi que les objets qu'il envisage de toucher. Ce bracelet peut être alimenté automatiquement par le mouvement de la main de l'utilisateur ou par des cellules solaires ou dans le cas échéant avec une prise de courant. Il permet de désinfecter la surface des mains et l...
Under partial shading conditions (PSCs), the P-V characteristic of a photovoltaic (PV) array becomes more complicated due to the presence of more than one power peak in contrast to normal conditions (without shading) where there is only one peak named Maximum Power Point (MPP). In this paper, an improved scanning method to track the Global Maximum...
Internet of Things (IoT) technologies, along with economies of scale and advances in hardware, software, and network technologies, have accelerated the explosion of connected objects across the Internet. A connected object can be controlled online from an IoT platform and can send, receive, and process various and varied data. In this chapter, we l...
