Abstract

Utilization of non-conventional sources of energy to meet the present day energy requirement has become very much essential in the era of fossil fuel crises. The main intention of the project is remote areas/ rural electrification. In this paper, economical and reliable hybrid renewable energy system for remote areas has been implemented. The hybrid system uses a combination of solar and wind energy system as they are complementary and availability is plenty in nature. It can work in standalone mode or in hybrid mode depending on the availability of the sources. For the efficient utilization of the solar and wind energy, a modified inverter with minimum components is used to obtain high quality output ac power that can feed directly the loads in remote areas. Direct drive PMSG, MPPT control, the modified inverter with minimum power electronics, feeding ac and dc loads makes the system more economical, reliable for the remote areas electrification. MATLAB/Simulink software is used for the modeling and simulation of the hybrid energy system. Further the proposed concept is implemented with nine level inverter instead of seven level inverter for better performance.
