Abstract(s)

This paper presents a new algorithm for ﬁnding the parameters that characterize a photovoltaic panel by using the Glowworm Swarm Optimization algorithm. This new algorithm shows great simplicity, ﬂexibility and precision, being able to precisely locate the global optimum point or multiple global optimum points, independently of the initial conditions. The approach here adopted allows the utilization of the algorithm in several existing models to characterize a photovoltaic panel in the current literature.
