3. INTRODUCTION
A solar-wind hybrid system combines solar photovoltaic
(PV) and wind turbine technologies to generate
electricity.
This hybrid approach offers a sustainable solution for
power generation, reducing reliance on fossil fuels and
mitigating climate change.
Combination of solar PV panels and wind turbines.
Integrated to supply continuous power.
Works day and night , in varied weather.
4. SOLAR AND WIND ENERGY
Solar Energy:
o Photovoltaic (PV) technology and its working principle.
o Advantages: Abundant, renewable, low operational costs.
o Limitations: Intermittent availability, efficiency variations.
Wind Energy:
o Wind turbine technology and energy conversion.
o Advantages: High energy yield in windy regions, scalable.
o Limitations: Site-specific, noise, and aesthetic concerns.
6. WORKING PRINCIPLE
1. Solar Panels capture sunlight during the day and convert it into electricity.
2. Wind Turbines use the wind to spin blades, which turn a generator to produce
electricity.
3. The power from both sources is sent to a controller, which manages the energy
flow.
4. The electricity is stored in batteries or sent directly to homes or the power grid.
5. When the sun isn’t shining (like at night), the system still works if there’s wind—
and vice versa.
6. This makes the system more reliable and sustainable, because it doesn’t depend
on just one energy source.
7. BENIFITS
Clean Energy – It uses sunlight and wind, which don’t cause pollution.
Saves Money – After setup, it reduces electricity bills.
Works All the Time – If there's no sun, wind can still make power, and vice
versa.
Reliable – Gives a steady supply of electricity by using two sources.
Good for Remote Areas – Useful in villages or places without power lines.
Reduces Fossil Fuel Use – Helps protect the environment by using less coal
or gas.
Low Maintenance – Needs little care once installed.
8. Challenges and Future Prospects
Technical Challenges:
o System integration complexities, storage solutions, and
efficiency optimization.
Economic Considerations:
o High initial investment, return on investment (ROI) timelines,
and policy support.
Future Trends:
Advancements in energy storage, smart grids, and AI-driven energy
management.
9. CONCLUSION
A solar-wind hybrid energy system is a smart and sustainable way
to produce electricity.
By using both sunlight and wind, it gives us clean, renewable
power all day and night, even when one source is not available.
This system helps reduce pollution, saves money in the long run,
and is a great step toward a greener and more reliable energy
future.
