Venture effect in wind mill and maximum power point tracking in hybrid Micro-Grid in Indian scenario

Abstract

This paper presents the optimum utilization of renewable energy sources existing in India. In renewable energy sources wind mill and photovoltaic cell plays an important role in India. The available wind velocity and solar radiation and climate plays important role in Indian power sector. Increasing demand of electricity it is very important to develop micro-grids to diversify the generation. So to solve this problem and optimization of wind and solar power are necessary. To optimize power in wind mill venture tube is designed to produce more power by extracting power from the wind and maximum power point tracking (MPPT) i.e. Perturb and Observe (P & O) technique is utilized to extract more power from PV cells. Venture effect in wind mill and MPPT technique is used to form DC Micro-grid and implemented in MATLAB as well as hardware results are tested. Results show the better operating performance of micro-Grid in stability issue and optimum power extraction from the wind mill and solar cell.
