. INTRODUCTION
• World is facing a major threat of fast depletion of the fossil fuel reserves.
• Present energy demand is met by fossil and nuclear power plants.
• Small part is met by renewable energy technologies.
• Soon a time will come when we face a severe fuel shortage.
• Reliable and robust systems to harness energy from conventional
resources.
• A way to help undo the damage we have caused.
• Researchers are investigating cheaper, renewable energy sources.
• Solar and wind energy being the two most common renewable sources.
• The most active research fields.
• They are at the center of clean energy innovation.
• Exponential growth in the use of small-scale green energy technologies.
 RENEWABLE ENERGY
• Renewable

• Available in wide spread

• Free from pollution

• Clean and pure energy

 SOLAR ENERGY
• Sun rays converted into electrical energy

• Unlimited supply

• No negative impact

• Free of cost

• Free from pollution

• Solar power are inexhaustible.

 LIMITATIONS
 Solar energy is not predictable and also the power

generation depends on amount of sunlight.

 Thus there is no generation during nights and overcast

condition.

 The efficiency is only 20%.

 WIND ENERGY
• Converts wind energy into electrical energy

• No fuel cost

• Free from pollution

• Does not cause green house gases.

 LIMITATIONS

• The wind is irregular and consistent wind is needed for

continuous power generation.

• Large area is required for setting up of a wind generation

system.

• Capital cost is quite high.

 GEOGRAPHICAL REGION
o SOLAR

• Average solar radiation 5kwh/sq m

• 2300-3200 sun shine hours available per year

• Available most part of country

o WIND

• Southern and Western coastal areas are ideal

location

• Annual average wind speed 5-6 m/s

• Attractive option to supplement the energy supply

NEED OF HYBRIDIZATION
HYBRID: The thing made by combining two or
more different element

• For increasing output

• For fulfilling demand of consumer

• Providing uninterrupted power supply

• System can design for both off grid and on grid

 DIFFERENT
HYBRID POWER
TECHNOLOGY
• Solar-Wind Hybrid Power

• Solar-Diesel Hybrid Power

• Wind-Hydro Hybrid Power

• Wind-Diesel Hybrid Power

SOLAR–WIND HYBRID POWER
• Ideal alternative in areas where wind velocity 5.6 m/s is available

• Power clear and non polluting

• Complement to each other

• Stable power supply

 COMPONENTS OF HYBRID
SYSTEM
SOLAR PANEL
CONTROLLER

• Monitors the system starting and stopping

 WHY WE USE MPPT CHARGE
CONTROLLER
• Consider solar panel Kyocera KC 130. It is rated at 7.39
𝐴𝑚𝑝𝑠.

• It’s power output is 130 Watts .

• Panel puts out 7.39 𝐴𝑚𝑝𝑠 & battery charges under 12V

• 7.39 𝐴𝑚𝑝𝑠 * 12V =88.8 Watts

• We lost over 41 Watts. But we paid for 130 Watts.

• To overcome this loss, we use MPPT Charger Controller.

 WORKING OF MPPT
CHARGE CONTROLLER
• Controller compares voltages of PV panel & Battery

• Figure out best voltage to charge Battery

• Example: Controller takes 17.6 Volts at 7.4 𝐴𝑚𝑝 & gives

output to 10.8 𝐴𝑚𝑝𝑠 at 12Volts .

• 10.8 𝐴𝑚𝑝𝑠 * 12Volts = 129.6 Watts

• Now we still have almost 130 Watts.

BATTERIES

• Stores the energy generated by wind and solar.

INVERTER
• Converts and store D.C power to A.C power.
 WIND TURBINE
• Converts kinetic energy of the wind into electrical energy.

• There are basically two types of turbines:

a)Vertical Axis Wind turbine

b)Horizontal Axis Wind Turbine

• A wind turbine is the opposite of a fan.

• Instead of using electricity to make wind, like a fan, wind

turbines use wind to make electricity.

• The wind turns the blades, which rotates the shaft, which
coupled to a generator to produce electricity.
 WORKING OF HYBRID SYSTEM
• The solar panels are mounted on the towers of the windmill.

• It should remains at a certain height from the ground.

• Solar panel should be kept in the direction of sun light.

• Solar panels are connected to a motor which is connected to a embedded system.

• Solar panels will rotate with the movement of the sun.

• From the sunrise till the sunsets total energy of the sun will be totally concentrated
on the solar panel.

• Turbine will rotate and will convert mechanical energy into electrical energy.

• This energy will also be stored in the battery.

• Thus the system is utilized for generation throughout the day and night.
BLOCK DIAGRAM OF THE
HYBRID SYSYTEM
 APPLICATION
• In hilly region

• In desert

• Business (Institutions and Government)

• Large Estate Houses

• Factories and manufacturing facilities

• Commercial Power generation

 ADVANTAGE
• Very high reliability (combines wind power, and solar power)
• Long term Sustainability
• High energy output (since both are complimentary to each other)
• Cost saving (only one time investment)
• Low maintenance cost (there is nothing to replace)
• Long term warranty
• No pollution
• Clean and pure energy
• Provides un-interrupted power supply to the equipment
• The system gives quality power out-put DC to charge directly the storage
battery or provide AC.
• The system can be designed for both off-grid and on grid applications.
• Efficient and easy installation, longer life
 DISADVANTAGE
• Large number of harmonics is produced.

• Initial investment is more.

• Large space is required for larger generations

• Wind energy systems are noisy in operation; a large unit can be

heard many kilometers away.

• Efficiency is less than conventional power plants.

 CONCLUSION
• Many villages can be lighted.

• Infrastructure investments in rural areas

• Stimulate development in rural areas.

• To satisfy the increasing demand of electricity with clean hybrid

power station by solar –wind can be used.
