Optimized Maximum Power Point Tracker for Fast-Changing Environmental Conditions (2008, methodology): “There are many MPPT strategies available ( [ 2 ] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9], [10]), for different converter topologies, which provide high performance tracking during ’nice’ weather conditions, i.e.”
On the Perturb-and-Observe and Incremental Conductance MPPT Methods for PV Systems (2013, background): “However, this is not related to its credited capability that it can determine when the MPPT has reached the MPP [10], [37]; it is merely a consequence of the discrete differentiation error and can only occur in specific circumstances.”
