Abstract

This paper presents the controlling actions on hybrid Wind-Solar Photovoltaic system using an energy storage device. Modeling of the proposed hybrid system is done regarding the varying wind speed and solar isolation variation. Individually, the wind energy system and solar photovoltaic systems are linked to a common DC link, where storage device is committed to controlling the voltage parameter. The power associated with wind turbine is produced by the Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator (PMSG). Maximum Power Point tracking Technique (MPPT) is cast-off here to obtain power points at peak level in-turn increase the efficiency of the Solar Photovoltaic (SPV) system. The simulation of MPPT algorithm is done by MATLAB/SIMULINK. Here pulses are provided to boost converter using Perturb & Observe approach. The ripples in the system try to mitigate by means of LC filter. The controlling action of the proposed hybrid system and its modeling is verified by simulating the parameters.
