The paper presents a MATLAB Simulink/PSIM simulation of photovoltaic cells, modules, and arrays. Simulation uses an improved single-diode model considering temperature and irradiance effects. A typical 50W solar panel serves as the basis for model evaluation and comparison with. The first objective of this work is to determine some of the performance parameters characterizing the behavior of a particular photovoltaic (PV) panels that are not normally provided in the manufacturers' specifications. This method is crucial for maximizing energy extraction and enhancing the overall efficiency of solar energy systems. The system includes six PV panels, a DC-DC boost converter, an inverter bridge, and a closed-loop control circuit. The input voltage of 130 V from the solar array is converted to a stable. This paper presents the performance of a grid connected converter topology for PV array.
