he environmental concerns linked to traditional
power generation methods have driven
solar photovoltaic (SPV) systems to be established
as a clean and viable alternative power
solution [1]. However, SPV systems are associated
with low energy conversion efficiency attributes.
This highlights the need for an efficient power conversion
system [2]. SPV sources showcase a nonlinear currentvoltage
(I-V) characteristic that is subject to variation
with concurring insolation and temperature conditions.
Consequently, this alters the maximum power point
(MPP) as well as the maximum power generation. As a
result, the literature of this field reiterates the need for
efficient maximum power point tracking (MPPT) techniques.
Prior works have established a variety of solutions

to track the MPP; each of them possesses its pros and
cons [2]. Notably, a number of conventional MPPT techniques
will fail to track the MPP under partial shading
conditions [2]. Although some intelligent techniques can
still achieve MPP, these methods oscillate around the MPP
due and as a result, some of the available power is not utilized.
The oscillating character of these MPPT techniques
occurs under uniform conditions as well [3]. Hence there
is a definite need to address this issue by determining a
non-oscillating, high speed, single step MPPT technique.
