This research study provides an efficient MPPT controller using different technique such as P&O, FLC, IC, MIC, and can be applied in a stand-alone PV system. It has been explained that when the solar PV module is directly connected to the load, the power delivered is not maximum and fluctuates due to variations in irradiance and temperature levels. Thus, an PV system is needed to achieve the optimum or peak power under changing environmental operating conditions. The dc-dc converter is then used in the Solar PV system along with MPPT controllers to achieve the optimum or peak power under changing environmental operating conditions. Modeling and simulation of each component of Solar PV system was presented and discussed in this research. These components were developed and simulated in a MATLAB/Simulink environment then all subsystems were connected together and combined with load to assess overall performance under varying weather operating conditions. The amount of output voltage ripple and input current ripple generated by conventional boost converter and two- phase IBC for different duty cycles was compared and analyzed.
