Fuzzy controlled dual input DC/DC converter for solar-PV/wind hybrid energy system

This paper proposes a multiple input power conditioner topology with Fuzzy controller to integrate intermittent nature of renewable sources such as solar, wind, etc. Solar PV and wind generator are utilized as the primary energy source to meet the load demand and well-regulated output voltage is obtained from the multiple input power conditioner. The regulated energy is transferred to the load through PWM inverter. Mathematical model of the multiple input power conditioner topologies has been developed. Based on the developed model dynamic simulation has been carried out and the results obtained from the simulation are presented in this paper. Performance evaluation of the proposed converter shows that the proposed fuzzy controller tune the parameters of dc/dc converter to obtain well regulated output voltage to the load from the intermittent nature of source.
