Abstract :PV irrigation systems have begun to be used intensively today, as energy needs increase. In Partially Shaded Conditions (PSC), the efficiency of the PV system decreases significantly, and traditional Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) algorithms become insufficient. On the other hand, traditional MPPT algorithms require sensors to measure the current and voltage of the PV system. In this study, a sensorless hybrid MPPT algorithm is proposed to reduce system costs and enable operation without the need for PV system data. A simulation study was conducted in the MATLAB/Simulink environment to examine the PV system. The proposed algorithm has been tested under four different PSC scenarios. PV system power, motor speed, and currents were examined under each condition. The high maximum power tracking performance of the proposed algorithm is demonstrated through simulation results. In the steady state, the lowest MPPT efficiency was 95.66%, whereas the highest MPPT efficiency was 99.9%. The MPPT algorithm completed in less than 2 seconds, with the first stage taking 1.3 seconds to reach most of the maximum PV system power. The second stage of the MPPT algorithm was used to achieve maximum power in a narrower area.
