description Power converters are widely used in renewable energy conversion systems such as photovoltaics. Their main role is to adapt the output voltage to a desired voltage shape.This study proposes a highly efficient Single-Ended Primary Inductor Converter (SEPIC) to enhance the utilization of PV arrays by ensuring a continuous flow of current. To minimize DC voltage ripples, a Proportional-Integral (PI) controller is presented to continuously monitor the High power extracted from the PV array. The PI controller parameters are optimized using the Osprey Optimization Algorithm (OOA), which mimics the hunting behavior of ospreys in nature. The OOA draws inspiration from the hunting strategy of ospreys when they hunt fish in the seas. The osprey first detects the position of its prey and then captures it, carrying it to a suitable location to consume it. Similarly, the OOA iteratively optimizes the PI controller parameters to advance the SEPIC converter and achieve a DC-link voltage for steady-state at the converter's output. Then it is fed into a voltage source inverter (VSI), which connects the system to a single-phase utility grid. A fuzzy logic tuned PI controller is employed to synchronize the inverter's output with the grid. The performance is evaluated by analyzing the harmonic content in the grid current. To validate the proposed approach, a Simulink model is developed and compared against a hardware prototype. The proposed results achieved an effectiveness of performance and efficient power conversion in the system.
