A method of maximum power point tracking for a photovoltaic module system is disclosed. The photovoltaic module system may comprise a photovoltaic module array comprising a plurality of identical photovoltaic modules, and the tracking method may comprise: detecting system parameters and environmental parameters of the photovoltaic module array; estimating a first voltage coefficient of one photovoltaic module according to the system parameters and the environmental parameters; estimating a plurality of second voltage coefficients of the photovoltaic module array according to the first voltage coefficient with different shading ratios; estimating a plurality of local maximum power point powers according to corresponding second voltage coefficients; and determining a whole maximum power point by comparing the local maximum power point powers with one another.
