Abstract
Renewable energy integration has attracted widespread attention due to its zero fuel cost, cleanliness, availability, and ease of installation. Among various renewable energy sources, photovoltaic (PV) and wind turbines (WT) have become very attractive due to the abundant local availability in nature, technological progress, and economic benefits. The hybrid combination of both distributed energy resources eliminates mutual intermittences due to their adverse nature; therefore, the reliability of the system will be improved. The basic key objective of this project is to generate electrical energy by using renewable and clean energy with minimum pollution. We use a hybrid system to overcome the drawbacks of renewable free-standing generation system. The working model of the solar-wind hybrid energy generation system successfully operated. By considering the cost and effectiveness of the system, it is suggested for all the rural community members to use the solar-wind hybrid system for the generation of electricity.
