The Hybrid power system integrates a PV station and wind park via an AC-bus to optimize overall attainment. Employing Maximum power point Tracking (MPPT) technology, both in PV systems and wind farms, ensures efficient operation of the hybrid system amid changing environmental conditions. Simulation using Simulink software allows for thorough assessment of the MPPT technology and control strategies in various environmental scenarios, encompassing solar effulgence and wind speed variations. The conceal after effect underscore the persuasiveness of the MPPT knack in maximizing power extirpation from hybrid power systems across diverse environmental conditions. Attaining unity power factor, the hybrid system synchronously injects current into the grid, maintaining phase alignment with the voltage. This control approach ensures grid voltage stability irrespective of external factors or injected electricity from the hybrid system. The solar and wind power system demonstrates commendable performance, leveraging renewable energy sources to produce electricity. While solar panels harness sunlight for electricity generation and wind turbines utilizes wind power, their environmental advantages include miniaturized carbon emissions and receded credence on fossil fuels. Nonetheless, remonstrance arise due to the intermittent nature of these energy sources, heavily reliant on weather conditions. To mitigate such challenges, advanced technologies like energy storage systems play a pivotal role. Continuous monitoring of system efficiency, coupled with advancements in weather forecasting and technical enhancements, is imperative for bolstering reliability and augmenting the contributions of PV and wind power to maintainable energy systems.
