Design and Implementation of Hybrid Power Generation System for Electric Loads of Train

Electrical power is the most crucial issue in the modern world. The sources from which electricity is generated need fossil fuels but fossil fuels are decreasing worldwide. Again, burning of these fossil fuels pollutes the environment. So, many researchers have continued their researching about how electricity can be produced easily and environment-friendly. This idea leads many researchers to renewable energy. In this paper, we have worked to minimize the obstacle of generating electric power in train by using renewable resources. A locomotive train or an electric train need substantial electric power to drive the train and other electrical devices. We have proposed a solar- wind hybrid system to produce electricity to charge the battery for electric light loads only of a train. By introducing the hybrid generation system in the train, the electrical power needed to drive the electric light loads can be mitigated. Again, the obstacles of cost for producing electricity can also be easily minimized. In this work, we used solar energy, wind energy to generate electricity, which made this system more economical and environment-friendly.
