It compares two methods— MPPT-PSO and MPPT-GA—with the aim of maximizing power extraction from the system in each case. The simulation results demonstrate that the use of these MPPT algorithms enables the system to reach the optimal mechanical speed necessary for maximum power output. All simulations were performed using Matlab/Simulink.enArticle
