  • Abstract
    A generalized design methodology based on a basic need criterion was developed for a hybrid PV power system. Application of this methodology to a nonelectrified Indian village in Orissa yielded acceptable values of the optimum mixing ratio of the PV and wind energies. It is shown how PV and wind complement each other to provide year-long dependable energy economically.
