PERFORMANCE EVALUATION OF HYDRO HYBRID AND PHOTOVOLTAIC ELECTRIC POWER SYSTEM

Abstract

In this paper we are focusing on Renewable energy sources have become a popular alternative electrical energy source where power generation in conventional ways is not practical. In the last decade the photovoltaic and wind power generation have been increased significantly. In this study, we proposed a hybrid energy system which combines both solar panel and wind turbine generator as a choice for conventional source of electrical energy like thermal and hydro power generation. The whole hybrid system is described given along with complete simulation results that find out the feasibility of the system. A software simulation model is developed in Matlab/Simulink.
