Modeling and simulation of solar photo-voltaic and PMSG based wind hybrid system

In this paper architecture of a hybrid system is proposed which is based on solar photo-voltaic and wind energy systems. Depending upon availability and requirement these renewable energy sources deliver the load together or independently. The proposed architecture consists of solar PV and wind energy system. In solar PV system MPPT technique is applied to maximize power output, a boost converter is employed to raise DC voltage and its output is fed to a three phase PWM inverter for converting DC voltage to AC at 50Hz frequency. In wind energy conversion system PMSG is driven by two masse drive train based wind turbine with zero pitch angle. Both systems supplying individual and combined loads of 1kW. Simulation study of the proposed system is carried out with MATLAB Simulink and simulation results are provided.
