- Abstract
Flexible power point tracking (FPPT) is a common and significate photovoltaic control problem under partial shading conditions. Based on CPP and MPP distribution analysis, both constant power point tracking and maximum power point tracking could be mathematically described by a single objective optimization. As one of the recent meta‐heuristic algorithms, which avoid the limitations of conventional scanning methods, the carnivorous plant algorithm (CPA) solves non‐convex optimization problems with fast speed, high accuracy, and simple calculation. However, it exhibits several drawbacks such as inappropriate parameters, over‐searching, and feasible solution ignored issues. Therefore, a global FPPT strategy based on modified CPA (mCPA) is proposed, which includes a search objective integration, efficient non‐convex search space skipping strategy, and adaptive tuning parameters according to sensitivity analysis. By statistical experiments compared with eight popular meta‐heuristic algorithms, the mCPA can correctly converge to the global MPP under various scenarios with the highest accuracy of 99.0%. Meanwhile, the observations of dynamic experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed strategy in terms of fast time response (0.5–3 s) for global FPPT under various uniform and non‐uniform insolation conditions.
