Abstrakt: Summary: In this work, the control of a Single‐Ended Primary‐Inductor Converter (SEPIC) supplied from a photovoltaic energy source and linked at its output to a DC current sink is addressed. The system is used for maximum power point tracking under varying environmental conditions. A strategy based on two loops of control is considered. A peak current mode controller is used for the inner loop, and a Proportional‐Integral (PI) controller is used for the outer voltage loop. Then, a comprehensive time‐domain and frequency‐domain modeling of the inner loop is theoretically addressed and then verified by the switched model of the system implemented in PSIM© software. The obtained results show that the system exhibits accurate tracking of the desired PV voltage while guaranteeing a fast maximum power point tracking under sudden changes in the environmental conditions. The mathematical modeling, design procedures, and the numerical simulations are validated using experimental results obtained from a laboratory prototype. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
