    In recent years, grid-connected multifunctional photovoltaic (PV) systems have proven to be highly efficient. This system integrates PV panels with a DC–DC boost converter (DC–DC–BC) and the electrical distribution grid (DEG). Linking the PV to the AC-DEG is accomplished through a three-level multifunctional voltage source inverter (MVSI). The DC–DC–BC component in this study is engineered to perform maximum power point tracking (MPPT) irrespective of normal or abnormal conditions. The conventional MPPT technique poses several challenges and constraints on system usage. Hence, the suggestion is to adopt synergetic control (SC) and sliding mode control (SMC) to enhance the MPPT technique's performance within the proposed system framework. Moreover, predictive direct power control is applied to the MVSI-based shunt active power filter, utilizing a phase-locked loop technique to achieve multiple objectives: minimizing energy fluctuations, injecting active power, correcting power factors, compensating reactive power, and mitigating harmonic currents. To implement the proposed system, the MATLAB is used for this purpose, with several tests used to study the behavior of the controls proposed in this work. Numerical results indicate significant reductions in active and reactive power fluctuations, with estimated rates of 38.46% and 15.30%, respectively, compared to traditional strategies. Moreover, the total harmonic distortion (THD) of the source current after filtering is reduced by 31.88% under solar irradiation of G = 1000 Wm2. Before filtering, the THD of current experiences a reduction estimated at 97.65%. These findings underscore the superior performance of the proposed control technique across all evaluated aspects
