Investigations on optimization algorithms for the application of wind and hybrid renewable energy systems

Abstract

In this modern era, the demand for energy is drastically increasing day newlineby day. To meet the current energy demand, power production with the help newlineof non-renewable energy sources or fossil fuels will lead to the depletion of newlinefossil fuels like coal, natural gas etc. To overcome this problem power newlineproduction by means of renewable energy sources has been encouraged. The newlineproduction of power from natural resources also reduces the emission of newlinecarbon dioxide and prevents polluting the environment. Renewable energy newlinesources like solar, wind, tidal, etc are present in plenty across the world, in newlineorder to preserve nature and also to prevent pollution, power production with newlinethe help of those sources has been encouraged. newlineAmong the renewable energy sources solar and wind energy is newlineavailable in plenty across the globe. So the major power production is from newlinesolar and wind energy, these sources can be combined and can be used as a newlinehybrid system which can supply power to the isolated grid which supplies newlinepower to the remote areas. The Energy management system can be employed newlineto make an appropriate use of the hybrid system. newlineIn the power production by renewable energy systems, development of newlinepower electronics plays a vital role in conversion of power and also in newlineextracting the maximum output from the system. DC - DC converters and the newlineinverters were used for the renewable energy system to convert power from newlineone form to another, also to increase the output power from the converters newlinemaximum power point tracking algorithms are used. newline
