The world is witnessing significant rise in fossil fuel prices since the end of the last century until now, this rise in price increases with the decrease in inventory day after day. Therefore, turned the attention of researchers in the field of power generation to expand in non-conventional energy sources (new and renewable energy sources). New and renewable energy is inexhaustible energy in use because they rely on renewable natural resources. So in this study find detailed explanation about the system of photovoltaic cells system with solar cell types. The mathematical model is an important part of the detailed study for PV systems. As well as study models for photovoltaic systems via the MATLAB/Simulink, is a programming environment contains many models for renewable systems intended to perform simulation and analysis. Solar cells system needs to apply the (MPPT) algorithm due to the instability of external circumstances such as solar radiation and temperature. Therefore, a neural network technology applied to train solar cell data is intended to perform the optimization process and get the greatest value for electric power. At the end of this research, study conducted the operation of PV system for processing load appropriate electricity around the clock.
