description The ability of the Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) technology to prevent losses by stabilizing power fluctuations during severe weather conditions is critical in improving photovoltaic power generation systems. Overall system stability is improved by carefully tracing the maximum power point (MPP). This research focuses on improving MPPT performance in solar systems by employing the ''Fuzzy Logic'' control method. The simulation, which is run in MATLAB/Simulink, includes a detailed model of the entire system. The primary circuit is designed with a DC-DC Boost architecture and a single MOSFET transistor. The Fuzzy Logic Controller (FLC) unit in MATLAB/Simulink generates an output variable led by two input variables via the Fuzzy Logic Controller unit. The Fuzzy Logic Controller (FLC) unit generates an output variable led by two input variables in MATLAB/Simulink. The simulation model, called ''Fuzzy Disturbance,'' combines Perturb & Observe with Fuzzy Logic and runs for 3 s. The results show an essential increase in system efficiency to 97%. The simulation results show that the suggested approach tracks MPP, reduces output power fluctuations, and improves system efficiency.
