“…Stability is another important metric for PSCs toward practical applications . The stabilized photocurrent density measured at a bias near the maximum point (0.87 V) kept constant over a period over 300s without any fluctuation (Figure S15, Supporting Information), giving a stabilize PCE of ≈17%.…”

All organic charge‐transporting layer (CTL)‐featured perovskite solar cells (PSCs) exhibit distinct advantages, but their scaling‐up remains a great challenge because the organic CTLs underneath the perovskite are too thin to achieve large‐area homogeneous layers by spin‐coating, and their hydrophobic nature further hinders the solution‐based fabrication of perovskite layer. Here, an unprecedented anchoring‐based coassembly (ACA) strategy is reported that involves a synergistic coadsorption of a hydrophilic ammonium salt CA‐Br with hole‐transporting triphenylamine derivatives to acquire scalable and wettable organic hole‐extraction monolayers for p–i–n structured PSCs. The ACA route not only enables ultrathin organic CTLs with high uniformity but also eliminates the nonwetting problem to facilitate large‐area perovskite films with 100% coverage. Moreover, incorporation of CA‐Br in the ACA strategy can distinctly guarantee a high quality of electronic connection via the cations' vacancy passivation. Consequently, a high power‐conversion‐efficiency (PCE) of 17.49% is achieved for p–i–n structured PSCs (1.02 cm2), and a module with an aperture area of 36 cm2 shows PCE of 12.67%, one of the best scaling‐up results among all‐organic CTL‐based PSCs. This work demonstrates that the ACA strategy can be a promising route to large‐area uniform interfacial layers as well as scaling‐up of perovskite solar cells.

“…Accurate tracking of the maximum power point in fast dynamics improves the PV system efficiency, as shown in Equation (4) [116]. However, aggregated efficiency is decreased once the operating point swings throughout the MPP because the trial process is used to search the global maximum power point [8].…”

“…The maximum power efficiency is attainable if a scaling factor is used to compensate for a change in weather conditions and a periodical sweep operation during partial shading conditions. In the PSO technique, the system efficiency is higher due to the high convergence accuracy between the particle positions and zero steady-state oscillations under the PSC [116].…”

This paper elaborates a comprehensive overview of a photovoltaic (PV) system model, and compares the attributes of various conventional and improved incremental conductance algorithms, perturbation and observation techniques, and other maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithms in normal and partial shading conditions. Performance evaluation techniques are discussed on the basis of the dynamic parameters of the PV system. Following a discussion of the MPPT algorithms in each category, a table is drawn to summarize their key specifications. In the performance evaluation section, the appropriate PV module technologies, atmospheric effects on PV panels, design complexity, and number of sensors and internal parameters of the PV system are outlined. In the last phase, a comparative table presents performance-evaluating parameters of MPPT design criterion. This paper is organized in such a way that future researchers and engineers can select an appropriate MPPT scheme without complication.

This paper addresses a performance evaluation of maximum power point tracking techniques (MPPT) in a photovoltaic system. This research work finds its applications in photovoltaic systems producing electric power with a better energy efficiency, which will lead to an improved relationship between the cost and the amount of the produced power. The importance of this work resides on the one hand in the evaluation of the performances of the different MPPTs according to three criteria instead of one or two criteria in other works of the literature and on the other hand in the study of Four algorithms in one paper and their comparisons. This paper discusses the performance evaluation of the MPPT algorithms called P&O, Inc-Cond, Hill-Climbing and Fuzzy algorithms based simulation results and practical validation. The performances of these algorithms are evaluated according to the following criteria: The response time, the amplitude of the oscillations around the optimal point and the accuracy. The objectives in this article are summarized in the following points: (a) modeling the photovoltaic systems, (b) presenting and detailing each MPPT algorithm (c) pressenting and discussing the simulation results in Matlab/Simulink and practical validation (d) evaluating the performance of each algorithm. This paper is completed by a summary on the areas of use for each algorithm and conclusions.

These solutions have many advantages. On the one hand, these sources allow the preservation of the environment, as they are eco-friendly. On the other hand, the use of these sources is related to the production competing with fossil sources. For the production of electric power from renewable resources, recourse to sources for basic photovoltaic energy is essential, however, the power supplied by a solar panel is related to three parameters: irradiation, temperature and the load. hence, PV systems suffer from relatively low conversion efficiency. To maximize the output power of PV array and to continuously track the maximum power point (MPP), several MPPT algorithms are proposed in the literature; Comparing the performance of these techniques seems a very interesting spot to determine which one is most suitable and efficient for a given PV system. Numerous works have addressed the comparison of MPPT algorithms. In some papers, this comparison is generally limited to a theoretical study and lacks of practical implementation [1]-[2]. Other articles have compared different MPPT by choosing a few criter...
