- Abstract
There has been a more significant trend from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources in recent years due to energy crises, environmental problems and sustainability. Renewable energy systems have become very useful and important especially photovoltaic and wind. This study focuses on a hybrid energy system. This hybrid system includes photovoltaic and wind energy systems as a renewable energy source. In addition, a diesel generator as a backup power source and battery storage system is used. The system is controlled with a fuzzy logic control (FLC) and optimizes energy distribution and maintains balance. A maximum power point tracking controller is developed using the perturb and observe algorithm and FLC. The photovoltaic and wind energy, has been analyzed weather conditions. The photovoltaic system produces about 3.5 kW. The wind turbine produces about 3.5 kW at 12 m/s wind speed. The diesel generator provides 5 kVA of backup power during periods of low renewable energy production. The 1000 Ah battery ensures energy balance and supports peak demand with 90% efficiency. The simulation results represent a 30% reduction in fuel consumption. In addition, this provides a 15% increase in system efficiency. The proposed approach effectively demonstrates the integration of renewable energy for sustainable power production. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
