Hybrid PV/WT/Batteries system management using VLSI and Pic microcontroller

The electric power supplied by hybrid renewable sources such as Photovoltaic panels and Wind Turbines associated to storage systems as Batteries (PV/WT/BAT systems) depends on environmental factors (wind speed, light intensity and temperature). These factors are characterized by their intermittence and unpredictability; it is therefore essential to effectively control and manage power flows from these sources. This paper presents the implementation of the different energy management scenarios of a PV/WT/BAT system based on various programmable targets (VLSI and Pic microcontroller).
