Stand-Alone Renewable Hybrid Power Generation System

Abstract

This paper presents the proposed design of a compact stand-alone hybrid power generation system using wind-solar resources. This system can be implemented in national highways where wind can be collected due to the high speed motion of vehicles and at the same time the solar energy from the ambient will also be collected. Finally both energies will be acquired simultaneously for charging the batteries and is utilized for satisfying the electrical demands of domestic and rural areas. For the purpose of maximum uninterrupted power supply in industries and factories, a DC generator and power supply line are also connected to the system. But these two systems work in a priority order only when the demand is not met by the Wind-Solar system. The main advantage of this system is, it can be implemented in both standalone and grid connected modes.
