Abstract: The following paper is based on simulation of Perturb and Observe (P&O) technique to find the maximum power point of a photovoltaic (PV) cell. The maximum power point tracking algorithm is based on changing either voltage or current. The algorithm works so that the operating point works at maximum power output. The system is designed for the 2KW resistive load with the boost converter to get the desired dc output voltage. The filters are used to minimize the ripple at dc side. Standard test condition for irradiance and temperature is considered which is 1000 W/m2 and 25o C.
