 INTRODUCTION

Hybrid energy system is the only viable solution for providing

electricity to remote villages where the utility grid is not
available.

Hybrid energy can also provide reliable power supply to the

remote villages with the help of multiple resources

Hence there is lot of research are going on Hybrid energy

generation systems.

 POINTS INFERRED FROM LITERATURE SURVEY

By evaluating all methods in the review of literature, the

following problems are identified:

Higher Component rating.

Converter cannot be utilized Properly.

Reduced efficiency.

Storage systems cannot be used.

To overcome the above disadvantages,

PV-Wind-Battery can be coupled with bidirectional DC-DC

Converter using Multi-Input Transformer.
24-5-2017 Phase II viva voce 7
 PROPOSED METHODOLOGY
The bidirectional buck boost converter can be integrated with
the primary side of the transformer.

Full bridge converter can be connected with the secondary side

of the transformer.

In the proposed converter inductor is placed in series with the

wind source to ensures the maximum current.

This current can be used for maintaining MPP current.

To track the maximum power from the PV panel is using the

incremental conductance method.

 EXPLANATION OF BLOCK DIAGRAM

The boost half bridge converter is used to supply the continuous

power from wind. The buck boost half bridge converter is used
to supply the continuous power from PV panel.

The transformer can be coupled with boost half bridge converter

and buck boost half bridge converter on the primary and
secondary side.

Full bridge inverter can used to feeding the AC load.

CIRCUIT DIAGRAM OF THE PROPOSED SYSTEM

24-5-2017 Phase II viva voce 11

 EXPLANATION FOR THE CIRCUIT
DIAGRAM
The power flow from wind source is controlled through a
unidirectional boost half-bridge converter.

When switch T 3 is ON, the current flowing through the source

inductor increases. The capacitor C 1 discharges through the
transformer primary and switch T 3 .

In secondary side capacitor C 3 charges through transformer

secondary and anti-parallel diode of switch T 5.

T 4 is gated ON during this time, the capacitor C 2 now discharges

through switch T 4 and transformer primary.

24-5-2017 Phase II viva voce 12

 During the ON time of T 3, the primary side voltage VP=-VC1 and
the secondary side voltage can be given as

VS = nVp = nVc1 = Vc 3 , or Vc 3 = nVc1

T 4 turned ON, the primary side voltage VP=Vc2 and the

Secondary side voltage . VS = nVp = nVc2 = Vc4 .

Hence the capacitor voltage are considered as a constant

Vc3=nVc1, Vc4=nVc2.

So the output voltage can be given as

Vdc=Vc3+Vc4

24-5-2017 Phase II viva voce 13

 contd
A bidirectional buck-boost converter is used for MPP tracking of
PV array and battery charging/discharging control.

Further, this bidirectional buck-boost converter charges/discharges

the capacitor bank C1-C2 of transformer coupled half-bridge boost

converter based on the load demand.

When switch T 1 is ON, the energy is stored in the inductor L.

When switch T 1 is turned OFF and T 2 is turned ON, energy
stored in L is transferred to the battery.

So the output voltage of the half bridge converter is
