THEORY
The concept of using renewable energy sources emerged from the need to search
for alternate green sources of energy. In order to diminish the greenhouse effect and slow
the depletion of fossil fuel, the solar energy has been developed. Photo-voltaic (PV) power
systems are becoming increasingly important in modern electrical grids. In recent years,
PV power systems have drawn significant research attention in modelling and simulation
studies for stand-alone and grid-tied systems. PV module is the basic building block to
construct the PV systems. The conventional technique to model the solar cell is to establish
the mathematical expression based on the equivalent circuits of the cell. A solar cell
consists of layers of semiconductor materials that exploit the photoelectric effect to convert
the photon energy of the sun radiation into electricity. In terms of power electronics, the
solar cell can be considered as a current source that exhibits non-linear characteristics.
There are different type of PV array combinations. They are Series (S), Series-
Parallel (S-P) and Honey-Comb (H-C) PV array configurations. Various shading
conditions are considered to compare the performance of PV array configurations. As the
number of PV modules shaded per string and the number of strings shaded in a PV array
increases, the maximum power generation capability decreases. The maximum power
generated and mismatching power loss is calculated under all shading conditions for each
CIRCUIT DIAGRAM
According to the variation of temperature also the output of the PV cell varies. When
the temperature of the solar cell increases the power generation capability also change
which is an undesirable feature. With the increase in temperature the open circuit voltage
decreases which results increase in the band gap so more energy is required to cross the
barrier. As a result, the solar cell decreases its efficiency.

APPARATUS REQUIRED
THEORY
Wind is one of the promising renewable source of energy to meet the growing
energy demand. Wind is air in motion and this energy is derived from solar energy. Wind
in general is produced by the uneven solar heating of the earth’s atmosphere. The wind
concentration varies according to the place and area. In the mountain and sea area wind
concentration is high compared to other areas of the earth. This variation of speed of wind
on earth are affected the production of wind energy in the plant.
The amount of power production depends on the wind concentration and wind
velocity at the blade of the wind mill. In places or areas where large amount of air passes
and that not create any effect on blade rotation, minimum 15km/hr. of speed is required to
generate electricity in the wind power generation plant. The kinetic energy of the wind is
used to impart rotational motion to the wind turbine. The shaft of the wind turbine is
coupled to the shaft of the electric generator. The electric generator can provide power
over a region acting as standalone or providing power to the grid.

with the aid of the MATLAB version R2016a and also suggest the ways of improving the
stability of the wind energy system (WECS) on interface with the grid.

OBJECTIVE
APPARATUS REQUIRED
THEORY
Solar PV power station is planned and located at the load centre. Its complete
electricity generation is meant to meet the electrical load of any remote area, village or
installation. Energy is essential to meet the requirement during non-sunshine hours. The
maximum power point tracker (MPPT) senses the voltage and current outputs from the
solar array and then suitably adjusts the operating point to obtain maximum power output
from the solar array as possible from the climatic conditions. The solar electric output in
direct current is converted into alternating current and it is fed into the load. The excess
power is preferably stored by charging the battery and otherwise excess is dumped in the
electric heaters. When the sun radiation is unavailable, the batteries supply the electricity
through the converter.
Among all the renewable energy resources, the solar and wind energies have the
great potential as a power generating energy source, because of their many advantages like
low or zero emission of pollutant gases, low cost, inexhaustible sources and easy
availability of these energy sources. But these systems have some disadvantages also like
dependency on weather conditions.
In this section the Simulink model of hybrid power system based on PV module,
wind turbine, and diesel generator set is described. The proposed system is consisting of a
PV module, boost converter, inverter, wind turbine, synchronous generator, diesel
generator set and battery. In this paper we are also comparing the performance analysis of
PV/wind/Diesel hybrid system with PV/wind/battery hybrid power system.

RESULT ANALYSIS
Using MATLAB/SIMULINK, results for output voltage and output current are
obtained. By integration of the two sources overall energy output improves. Initially due
to transient state, some spikes appear in the voltage and current waveforms but later on
steady state is achieved. Voltage and frequency fluctuations and harmonics are the major
power quality issue for a standalone system which can be resolved to a large extent by
having proper design, advance fast response control facilities and good optimization of the
hybrid system.
CONCLUSION
This experiment describes a hybrid energy system with variable speed with
generation, photovoltaic system along with power electric interface under standalone
mode. Computer simulation was conducted using MATLAB/SIMULINK. In the
standalone mode the performance of the system is elevated for various wind speeds and
various solar irradiation levels. Due to wind speed and solar irradiation AC voltage varies.
Battery system is used to maintain the balance between the source and load. The
performance of the developed system is evaluated in MATLAB/SIMULINK platform and
the results are presented.
OBJECTIVE
• To simulate a MPPT based solar PV system using MATLAB program to show the
output energy for the experiment.
• To study about the solar energy sources separately or simultaneously based on the
given parameters.

THEORY
Maximum power point tracking (MPPT) or sometimes just power point tracking
(PPT) is a technique used commonly with wind turbines and photo-voltaic (PV) solar
systems to maximize power extraction under all conditions. Although solar power is
mainly covered, the principle applies generally to sources with variable power: for
example, optical power transmission and thermo photovoltaics.
MPPT is the process of finding this point and keeping the load characteristic there.
Electrical circuits can be designed to present arbitrary loads to the photo-voltaic cells and
then convert the voltage, current, or frequency to suit other devices or systems, and MPPT
solves the problem of choosing the best load to be presented to the cells in order to get the
most usable power out.
Solar cells have a complex relationship between temperature and total resistance that
produces a non-linear output efficiency which can be analysed based on the I-V curve. It
is the purpose of the MPPT system to sample the output of the PV cells and apply the
proper resistance (load) to obtain maximum power for any given environmental
conditions. MPPT devices are typically integrated into an electric power converter system
that provides voltage or current conversion, filtering, and regulation for driving various
loads, including power grids, batteries, or motors.
• Solar inverters convert the DC power to AC power and may incorporate MPPT: such
inverters sample the output power (I-V curve) from the solar modules and apply the
proper resistance (load) so as to obtain maximum power.
• The power at the MPP (Pmpp) is the product of the MPP voltage (Vmpp) and MPP
current (Impp).

THEORY
The wind energy system extracts the wind energy and it to the electrical energy.
The output power of wind energy system varies depend on the wind speed. Due the non-
linear characteristic of the wind turbine, it is a challenging task to maintain the maximum
power output of the wind turbine for all wind speed conditions. There are extensive
researches concerning with the approaches to track the maximum power point of the wind
turbine called as MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) control. There are three
common MPPT methods i.e.:
In the P&O method, the rotor speed is perturbed by a small step then the power
output is observed to adjust the next perturbation on the rotor speed. a constant step is
introduced in the perturbation process. A variable step is employed in grid system by
considering the slope of power changes. an advanced hill-climbing searching is proposed
to work with different level of turbine inertia by detecting the inverter output power and
inverter dc-link voltage. It is the most common technique used in MPPT control.
In the WSM method, the wind speed and rotor speed are measured and used to
determine the optimum tip speed ratio (TSR). Here fuzzy logic control is employed to
enhance the performance by dealing the parameter insensitivity. This method is quite
simple to operate.
The PSF method tracks the maximum power by reading the current power output
to determine the control mechanism to follow the maximum power curve stored in
Lookup-table. A fuzzy logic control is developed to overcome the uncertainties of the
power curves. This method is difficult and expensive to be implemented.

RESULT ANALYSIS
Using MATLAB/SIMULINK, results for output voltage and output current are
obtained. For the sake of simulation, a linear wind profile is imposed, in order to easily
observe the power generated by the wind turbine and by the electric generator (PMSG),
as well as the power delivered to the utility grid. Considering the MPPT control algorithm,
the resulting wind-turbine developed torque is given in. This torque has to be imposed in
the vector-control loop for the wind generator (PMSG). The active and reactive electric
powers generated by the PMSG are shown. It can be seen that
(i) The power of the wind turbine and the active power of the PMSG are quite
close; this is due to analysing an ideal wind energy conversion system
(ii) Small amount of reactive power is delivered by the PMSG to the DC-link
circuit.

In this paper a short term (24-h ahead) wind power forecasting using a double stage
ANFIS model is presented. The prediction system uses the meteorological predictions on
the NWP model and the actual measurement records of windfarm SCADA database. The
proposed architecture has two hierarchical ANFIS stages. In the first stage the wind turbine
is modelled by a PSO-ANFIS black box to develop a relationship between the predicted
NWP meteorological variables and actual wind speed measurements recorded by
windfarm SCADA. In the second stage ANFIS model is developed to map the wind turbine
wind speed vs the wind power characteristics based on the real operational conditions.
Then the forecasted wind speed by the ANFIS model in the first stage is applied to the
developed model in the second stage in order to forecast the next day power characteristics
of the wind farm.
This approach however limits itself for a short period of time. For large period
forecasting each and every data during that period should be considered. For an example
for a power forecasting of one year the SCADA system must have the data of wind power
demand for 365 days of the year. This includes the working days’ data and holidays data.
After which a fuzzy is developed which will be able to able transfer the system to a desired
output.

power from a series of given data. The first ANFIS which is developed first is fed into the
second ANFIS which then used to forecast the wind power for a given set of real time
SCADA measurements. In the process we achieve the optimum solution which we see
with minimum error in all weather conditions. This method adopted is one of the best with
having only 8 secs of computational time. This is simulated and results are plotted.
CONCLUSION
In this paper we studied about wind power forecasting in a micro grid environment on
daily basis while considering all the error conditions and all weather conditions. We
simulated the model in MATLAB and found out various waveforms concerning working
