The invention discloses a photovoltaic inverter MPPT control method based on a three-point comparison method. The method comprises the steps that (1) three-point continuous sampling is performed, wherein a point A, a point B and a point C on a solar cell P-V characteristic curve are selected at will for sampling, the three points are close, the voltage of the point A is U0, the power of the point A is Pa, the voltage of the point B is U0+delta U, the power of the point B is Pb, the voltage of the point C is U0-delta U, and the power of the point C is Pc; (2) the direction of voltage disturbance is judged, if Pa is smaller than Pb, a counter num plus one, or else, the counter num minus one, if Pa is greater than Pc, the counter num plus one, and or else, the counter num minus one; (3) with time T being a period, the magnitude of delta U is changed, and disturbance voltage is changed to the peak value delta Umax. By the adoption of the three-point comparison method, no judgment caused by the change of the external environment can be effectively avoided, and therefore an invertor control system can track the MPP accurately and effectively.
