Note: MPPT tracking efficiency is highest under stable irradiance. Partial shading requires global MPPT scan to avoid local maxima.

Reference

Base MPPT Eff: P&O=99.0%, IncCond=99.3%, Global=99.5% Dynamic Loss = Irr_variability × 0.05 Mismatch Loss = Mismatch% × (1 + 0.1 × (N_strings − 1)) Tracking Eff = Base − Dynamic Loss Total Loss = (100 − Track Eff) + Mismatch Loss
