Abstract
Renewable energy sources are becoming increasingly critical for combating global electricity shortages and mitigating environmental pollution. Among these, solar energy stands out for it s abundance, minimal environmental impact, and widespread availability across diverse regions. However, optimizing solar energy production is essential to maximize its potential by reducing costs, improving efficiency, and fully utilizing this ever -present resource. This research introduces two novel, AI -powered nonlinear control methodologies designed for precise Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) in photovoltaic (PV) systems. These methodologies are specifically crafted to handle dynamic changes in solar irradiance and temperature with exceptional adaptability. The proposed techniques' performance is rigorously evaluated through simulations conducted within the MATLAB/Simulink environment. The evaluation focuses on their effectiveness under various system conditions, employing two distinct DC -DC converter configurations for a comprehensive analysis.
