Analysis and Integration of Renewable Energy Resources based Microgrid using Smart Inverter

Abstract

Nowadays the world is depending on renewable energies like solar energy and wind energy as they are the natural resources to generate power. By combining both the renewable energies,  it  produces a system named as solar wind hybrid system as solar and wind energy are tremendous in nature and together they increase the reliability of the system. In this research paper, solar energy and wind turbine are used as the main sources, along with solar panel a buck boost converter is used to maintain the voltage to a rated value and with the wind turbine a rectifier circuit is used to convert AC voltage into DC.  The characteristics of RES with an AC grid are also observed using solar and wind energy. With the aid of a multi-level inverter, solar and wind energy are converted from DC to AC at a predetermined voltage in order to produce electricity.  It can be stated that, in comparison to traditional energy sources, renewable energy sources are currently quite useful.
