 INTRODUCTION

• Today, the world is progressing at quite a fast rate with the use of conventional
source of energy. The two major disadvantages of using them are the environmental
pollution created by its use and its limited quantity.

• On the other hand the non-convectional source of energy are available in plenty,
free of cost and pollution free. So, it is the time to think for switching onto the non-
conventional sources and restrict the use of conventional sources of energy.

• Many types of clean and renewable energy sources such as thermal, nuclear, hydro,
wind, solar can be used in the production of electrical energy.

 PROBLEM STATEMENT
• Environmental pollution: Burning fossil fuels releases carbon dioxide,
which is directly linked to global warming – so fossil fuels are very
damaging to the health of our planet.
• Huge amounts of fuel reserves: To keep power stations working, you need
truckloads of fuel. This can make energy generation very expensive.
• Public health issues: Because of all their nasty air pollution, burning fossil
fuels can lead to lung problems and asthma attacks in humans.
• Fuels will run out: Once the earth's supplies of fossil fuels have been used
up, they can't be renewed (at least not for several hundred million years), so
we won't be able to use them for our rising power needs.

•Oil spills: The huge tankers transporting oil sometimes crash and spill
their contents into the sea and nearby coast. This is disastrous for the ocean
and land, and can be deadly for the animals that live there.
• Rising costs: As just a few countries hold a large amount of fossil fuels,
fuel prices can rise without warning.
• Health risks to workers: Mining for coal or drilling for oil can be very
dangerous, resulting in a large number of diseases, injuries and deaths
every year.

 OBJECTIVES
The main objectives of the project work are as follows:
 The main objective of this project is to provide clean and stable electricity.
 An alternative power solution for remote locations and small villages.
To generate continuous power from wind and solar energy(day and night).
 To generate power for the road lights on highways.
 To reduce air pollution caused by the power generation from fossil fuels.
 To accomplish the electricity demand for the whole city.

 EXPERIMENTAL WORK

PV cell
A solar cell, or photovoltaic cell,
is an electrical device that
converts the energy
of light directly into electricity
by the photovoltaic effect

DEPT. OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERING, RNSIT 10

Wind turbine
A wind turbine, or alternatively
referred to as a wind energy
converter, is a device
that converts the wind's kinetic
energy into electrical energy.

DEPT. OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERING, RNSIT 11

Electronics components
•Multimeter
A multimeter is also known as
a VOM (volt-ohm-milliammeter), is
an electronic measuring instrument
that combines several measurement
functions in one unit.

DEPT. OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERING, RNSIT 12

•Dynamo
The electric dynamo uses
rotating coils of wire and
magnetic fields to convert
mechanical rotation into a
pulsing direct
electric current through Far
aday's law of induction

DEPT. OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERING, RNSIT 13

•Battery
Battery is a device which is
used to store electricity.

DEPT. OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERING, RNSIT 14

•Electric circuit
An electric circuit comprises
of many electronic
component which are used
to transmit current

 CALCULATIONS
•Wind turbine power
𝟏
P = ×⍴× A × 𝑽𝟑 × 𝑪𝒑 × 𝛈𝒈 Watts
𝟐
⍴ = Air density,
A = Swept area
V = Wind velocity in m/s
𝑪𝒑 = power coefficient ,
η𝒈 = generator efficiency

DEPT. OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERING, RNSIT 16

⍴ = 1.225 kg/𝑚3 ,
V = 7 m/s
𝑪𝒑 = 25%,
η𝒈 = 85 %,
P = 0.5 × 1.225 ×0.3355× (𝟕)𝟑 × 𝟎. 𝟐𝟓 × 𝟎. 𝟖𝟓
Output power of turbine:
P = 15 W

DEPT. OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERING, RNSIT 17

•PV cell power
𝑷𝒑𝒗 = 𝑰𝒊𝒏𝒔 × A × E Watts

𝐼𝑖𝑛𝑠 = solar insolation (W/𝑚2 ),

A = area of solar panel (𝑚2 ),
E = solar panel yield/efficiency (%)

DEPT. OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERING, RNSIT 18

𝐼𝑖𝑛𝑠 = 6512 W/𝑚2
A = 0.07 𝑚2
E = 18 %
So,
Power generated by PV cell is
𝑃𝑝𝑣 = 0.07×0.18×6512
𝑃𝑝𝑣 = 82.05 W

 Thesystem provides power throughout the day and night with
minimal use of the battery bank at night.
 The system generates enough energy to keep the batteries in a full
state of charge to prolong their lifetime.
 Investment on the project is worth as the system is expected to run
at low costs and generate affordable electricity for the village.
 The individual power of solar and wind system is calculated and
then their combine total power output is obtained.

DEPT. OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERING, RNSIT 22

 CONCLUSIONS
 Because the seasonal profiles of the wind and solar resources are somewhat
complimentary in some reason, combination of wind and solar perform better
than either wind or solar alone.
 Under the circumstance of power failure this hybrid system keeps the
continuity of supply without producing any noise pollution, dislike any other
power generating equipment.
 By this project many villages can be lighted. For villages which are much away
from the construction site of large power generating stations such as hydro and
nuclear can be provided with power.
Also to satisfied the increasing demand of electricity with clean hybrid power
station by solar-wind can be used.

 SCOPE OF FUTURE WORK
 The optimization and reliability estimation for an hybrid
combination of a photovoltaic (PV), wind energy conversion system
and diesel system.
 Optimization of hybrid system by considering maximum power
point tracking, cost of externalities and future demands to minimize
the capacity of battery and excess power generated.
 Practical difficulties associated with the implementation of hybrid
