Abstract
Incremental Conductance (IC) algorithm is considered cheap, and easy to implement for Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT). However, the IC technique takes time to find the MPP if the voltage is far away from the MPP, and suffers when subjected to rapid change in irradiance. In this paper, IC technique was compared to the modified Incremental Conductance technique (MIC) under the standard test conditions (STC). Then the MIC was compared to a Fuzzy Logic Controller (FLC) MPPT technique in order to evaluate the best and the accurate controller for the MPPT. Results suggest that using FLC and MIC could improve the MPPT and increase the PV system stability.
