Study and Construction of a small scale hybrid R.E.S Power System of Wind Generator and Photovoltaic

Abstract

In this project the design and implementation of an

experimental, small scale hybrid system of produced electric

energy is presented. Within this framework, a series of

measurements was conducted, including meteorological

measurements and measurements of produced power,

separately for each of the sub-systems. After having that data

processed, some techno-economic models were developed.

To accomplish the aim of monitoring the whole energy

producing system, a special circuit that leads the data to a

commercial data logger, either they are coming from the

W/G or the P/V, was built. Moreover, an independent

control system was designed and implemented for the W/G,

to achieve its protection in case of strong winds. There was

also implemented an ohmic consumer, composed of a bank

of glow-lamps to which the produced energy is driven.

The system is built up from a W/G of 1 kW power

(Figure 1) and 4 P/V panels of 85 Wp each, meaning that the

total power is 340 Wp (Figure 2).
