Modeling of an intelligent battery controller for standalone solar-wind hybrid distributed generation system

Abstract

In this paper, a different approach of standalone hybrid distributed generation has been shown. Due to the intermittent nature of the renewable energy resources, the reliability of the power system is decreased using single renewable energy source based electricity supply system. To overcome the problem the size of the storage system exceptionally large which increases the overall cost of the system and drastically reduces the flexibility. To resolve the problem a standalone hybrid power supply system is designed by integrating the solar and wind energy to generate electricity. The hybrid system increases the generation capacity without increasing the storage unit and maintains reliable electricity to the consumer. The proposed system has been modelled using Matlab/Simulink and verify under variable sources and load condition without compromising with the power quality issue.
