Hybrid Generation system

日期 : May 2016 - Jun 2017

The production of energy using renewable natural resources such as wind, sunlight, rain, tides, geothermal heat, etc., has gained much importance in recent years as it is an effective means of reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Recent research and development of alternative energy sources have shown excellent potential as a form of contribution to conventional power generation systems. The need for innovative technologies to make the grid smarter has recently emerged as a major trend, as the increase in electrical power demand observed worldwide makes it harder for the actual grid in many countries to keep up with demand. Furthermore, electric vehicles (from bicycles to cars) are developed and marketed with more and more success in many countries all over the world. Different energy sources and converters need to be integrated to meet sustained load demands while accommodating various natural conditions. Our project focuses on the integration of photovoltaic (PV) and wind systems for sustained power generation. Whenever the PV system cannot completely meet load demands, the wind system provides power to meet the remaining load. The main contribution of this work is the hybridization of alternate renewable energy sources with using storage strategy using appropriate power controllers to build an autonomous system.
