In order to effectively use solar energy, it is necessary for photovoltaic generation system to track the maximum output power point ( MPP) of the photovoltaic cells. The existing maximum power point tracking( MPPT) algorithms are compared and researched, and the small step size incremental conductance algorithm combining with constant voltage tracking method is proposed, and the Matlab simulation is conducted. The results of simulation show that the improved algorithm can track the MPP quickly, features good dynamic performance, and fast adaptability for mutation of light intensity, thus the solar energy can be used more effectively. The simulation research on the algorithm offers excellent guidance to practical system experiments.
