This work proposes a modified differential evolution (MDE) based maximum power point tracker (MPPT) for photovoltaic (PV) system under partial shading condition. The proposed MDE does not involve any random numbers; hence, consistency of MPP tracking always prevails. Besides, it only contains one tu...
