Novel approach for MPPT using integrated controller for hybrid energy generation

The Combination of wind energy and photovoltaic power generation is non-polluted free energy with very low operation cost. This factors are encouraging investors to invest the power sector. This paper describes the implementation of maximum power tracking using integrated converter which consist of cuk and SEPIC converter for PV/wind hybrid system. Permanent magnet synchronous motor is used to demonstrate wind turbine. In this work the high frequency current harmonics is reduced and also efficiency of the overall system is increases. To avail continue as per power supply the battery also connected together with the PV/wind system. The control technique implemented here is hysteresis controller which gives the optimum power point recovered from wind turbine and photovoltaic system. Simulation is carried out in MATLAB Simulink software and the results of the cuk and sepic converter have been presented.
