  • Abstract
    Energy Conservation is one of the major issues of the recent years. High power is usually generated using non renewable energy sources. For generation of such power, raw material cost and scarcity becomes a great issue. To overcome the above problems, harnessing green energy will give a better solution. Even though each green energy system has its own merits and demerits, connecting two or more different systems will give continuous power and will not pollute the environment. In this paper, three major energies are used for harnessing continuous energy. Each system is designed with specific parameters and coupled to form a constant energy source. Solar, Piezo and Fuel Cell are chosen for the analysis. The simulation is done using MATLAB. The various graphs show the performance of each system. Finally, all the systems are coupled and connected to a basic inverter for AC output.
