Hybrid Renewable Resource Power Generation using Back to Back Voltage Source Converter with Output Regulation

Abstract

There is a massive and rapid development in the industry and prevailing population inflation due to which the energy demand spikes. The increase in demand dilates the gap between the energy supplied and usage which makes the power quality important to consider, otherwise it causes voltage, current or frequency deviations which has unfavourable consequences in customer’s equipment or result in failure. To overcome this the concept of complementary usage of wind and solar cogeneration system is introduced along with the topology with Neutral Point Clamped inverter which has 3-level output converter that decreases the harmonics and the switching rate, it also features the regulation of the VSC through fuzzy based control scheme in the rotating reference frame of wind-solar cogeneration system with no extra DC/DC conversion stages.
