Renewable energy sources play a pivotal role in the pursuit of sustainable and eco-friendly power solutions. While offering environmental benefits, they present inherent challenges. Photovoltaic systems rely on surrounding conditions, wind systems contend with variable wind speeds, and fuel cells are both costly and inefficient. Furthermore, the energy injected by renewable energy sources (RES) exhibits unpredictable behavior. To tackle these problems, researchers employ diverse power electronic devices and converters like inverters, power quality filters, and DC–DC choppers. Among these, DC–DC converters stand out for effectively regulating DC voltage and enhancing the efficiency of RESs. The meticulous selection of a suitable DC–DC converter, coupled with the integration of an efficient control technique, significantly influences overall power system performance. This paper introduces a novel approach to the design of switching controllers for DC–DC converters, specifically tailored for application in renewable energy systems. The proposed controller leverages the power of composite switched Lyapunov functions (CSLF) to enhance the efficiency and performance of DC–DC converters, addressing the unique challenges posed by renewable energy sources. Through comprehensive analysis and simulation, this study demonstrates the efficacy of the controller in optimizing power transfer, improving stability, and ensuring reliable operation in diverse renewable energy environments. Moreover, the small-scale DC–DC converter experiment’s findings are presented to confirm and validate the proposed scheme’s practical applicability.
