Abstract
In recent years, there has been a growing interest in moving away from large centralized electricity production towards distributed energy resources. In this paper are designing of a Hybrid solar/wind system as well as integrating it with the grid system in MATLAB /SIMULINK environment. And Designing of a compensating device and compare it with the basic STATCOM compensator for active power output enhancement in the system. The compensating device control has to be designed with a linear crow optimizing algorithm to obtain a smooth voltage and current waveform. Reduction in the distortion level of the voltage output at the grid system is to be done by using the proposed optimizer. The description concludes that the hybrid system is made efficient for driving the loads having enhanced active power output at its terminal. The voltage available has been made less distorted and the THD level in current output has also came down.

Summary
There has been a growing interest in moving away from large centralized electricity production towards distributed energy resources. With the present growth rate of energy consumption the world’s energy consumption is doubling every 10 years, which will lead to the depletion of the fossil fuel supply in a few hundred years This means that other forms of energy will have to be used in the near future. DEG consists of placing small production plants (up to ten megawatts) in municipalities and industrial structures at the distribution level These plants include natural gas micro turbines, fuel cells, wind and solar energy sources. The production company will benefit from the fact that it will not have to invest large amounts of capital in a production facility that does not generate a return on investment for several years Another advantage for the service company is the reduction of the load on the transmission and distribution network (T&D). Another advantage for the user would be better energy quality and reliability
