Photovoltaic (PV) cells are a renewable energy source that is safe for the environment; they capture and convert sunlight into electrical power using solar arrays or modules. The PV panels generate electrical energy from solar radiation, and in this PV panel-based energy conversion system, maximum power point tracking (MPPT) is a crucial component. Partial shading conditions result in a decrease in the PV systems' energy output, and this phenomenon is encountered in all types of PV systems. Hence, an in-depth description of the PV system is provided in this study.
