Abstract

This study presents a new approach for Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) by combining the honey badger algorithm (HBA) with a Genetic Algorithm (GA). The integration aims to optimize photovoltaic (PV) system performance in partial shading conditions (PSCs). Initially, the HBA is utilized to explore extensively and identify potential solutions while avoiding local optima. If necessary, the GA is then employed to escape local optima through selection, crossover, and mutation operations. On average, this proposed method has a 40% improvement in tracking time and 0.77% in efficiency compared with the HBA. In a dynamic case, the proposed method achieves a 4.81% improvement compared to HBA.
