The paper presents a unique approach to addressing the conversion of power requirements for standalone photovoltaic (PV) systems through the development of a multiport multi-bus power converter with partial power processing (PPP) capability. The primary objective is to improve the overall performance and efficiency of the PV system by effectively integrating multiple energy sources and loads. Maximum PPP method is applied by connecting one of the primary converter ports in series between the input and output. The aim is to optimize the converter's performance and achieve maximum power conversion efficiency. The performance of the converter is studied for various solar intensities. The effects of duty ratio of the converter are examined, and the optimum modulation index to maintain AC output constant for different intensities is identified. The results are discussed in detail.
