Abstract The trend of generating electrical power through renewable energy sources is increasing day by day toreduce the burden on fossilfuels. Solar photovoltaic is one of the fastest growing renewable energy sources because of its merits such as abundancy in nature, ease of installation, and its flexible and modular nature. The energy output of the power systems can be made more reliable when such renewable energy resources are combined with conventional energy generating systems. In this project a hybrid system comprising a hydro system is used in combination with a solar photovoltaic system to ensure the continuity in power supply. A power quality compensation scheme is used to overcome the power quality issues due voltage sags caused by three phase faults. Thus power generation is made more reliable and power systems are mademoreefficient.

1. INTRODUCTION

Intoday‟sclimateofgrowingenergyneedsandincreasing environmental concern, alternatives to the use of non renewable and polluting fossil fuels have to be investigated. One such alternative is solar energy. Other reasons include advantages like abundant availability in nature, eco friendly and recyclable. With solar power, we can save electricity and decrease carbon footprint. The system is also easy to maintain as there are no moving parts.Itisatleast20 30%cheaperthantheprevailinggrid tariffs for most commercial and industrial consumers in India. Solar power is certainly much more beneficial than othersourcesofrenewableenergy.

Typical photovoltaic cell efficiency is about 15%, which means it can convert 1/6 of solar energy into electricity. Photovoltaic systems produce no noise, there are no moving parts and they do not emit pollutants into the environment. Taking into account the energy consumed in the production of photovoltaic cells, they produce several tens of times lesscarbon dioxide perunit in relation to the energy produced from fossil fuel technologies.

Thecontributionofsolarenergytothegridduring periods of peak demand is significant since, reducing demand on the grid through the addition of clean solar energy can help reduce the likelihood of brownouts and rolling blackouts when temperature rise. An increase in solar energy produced during peak periods equals decreased demand on the grid, and decreased demand on thegridmeanslowercosts ofenergyduringpeakperiods. Therealityisthatsolarhasthepotentialtobringtheprice ofpeakenergydownforratepayersacrosstheboard.

2. METHODOLOGY

Hybrid power is combinations between different technologies to produce power. Power Crisis is one of the top most problems in recent years. Power is usually generated using non renewable energy sources such as steam, oil, petroleum gases, nuclear, etc., for producing of such power the available raw material are not more than enough and investment cost become great issues. To run over the above issues, accumulating green energy will provide a better result. Since each green energy system is eco friendly it also has its certain demerits in power generation and hence connecting more than one unique system together will facilities continuous power generationanditwillnotspoiltheatmosphere.

Specifically in our project, two major energy resources like solar, wind and hydro areused for generating uninterrupted power. Each system is designed with precise criteria and connects to form a consistent energy resource. Solar and hydro energy systems are selectedfortheimplementation.Using MATLAB/SIMULINKsimulationhasbeendone.

3.1 PHOTOVOLTAIC ENERGY SYSTEM

ThephotoelectricconversioninthePVjunction.PV junction (diode) is a boundary between two differently doped semiconductor layers; one is a Ptype layer (excess holes),andthesecondoneisanN type(excesselectrons). At the boundary between the P and the N area, there is a spontaneous electric field, which affects the generated electrons and holes and determines the direction of the current.

To obtain the energy by the photoelectric effect, there shall be a directed motion of photoelectrons, i.e. electricity.Allchargedparticles,photoelectronsalso,move in a directed motion under the influence of electric field. The electric field in the material itself is located in semiconductors, precisely in the impoverished area of PV junction (diode). It was pointed out for the semiconductorsthat,alongwiththefreeelectronsinthem, therearecavitiesascharge

3.4 CONSTRUCTION OF DVR

Power circuitandthecontrol circuitarethe 2main parts of the DVR. There are various critical parameters of control signals such as magnitude, phase shift, frequency etc. which are injected by DVR. These parameters are derived by the control circuit. This injected voltage is generated by the switches in the power circuit based on the control signals. Furthermore the basic structure of DVR is described by the power circuit and is discussed in this section. The 5 main important parts of power circuit, theirfunctionandrequirementsarediscussedahead.

compensation ability of DVR. Among all others, lead batteries are popular because of their high response during charging and discharging But the discharge rate is dependent on the chemical reaction rate of the battery so that the available energy inside the battery is determined byitsdischargerate.

The difference between the pre sag voltage and thesagvoltageisinjectedbytheDVRbysupplyingthereal power from the energy storage element and the reactive power.TheDVRinjectsthedifferencebetweenthepre sag and the sag voltage, by supplying the real power requirementfromtheenergystoragedevicetogetherwith thereactivepower.DuetotheratingsofDCenergystorage and the voltage injection transformer ratio the maximum capabilityofDVRislimited.Themagnitudeoftheinjected voltage can be controlled individually in the case of three single phaseDVRs.Withthenetworkvoltagestheinjected voltages are made synchronized (i.e. same frequency and thephaseangle)

During the normal operation

During the normal operation as there is no sag, DVR will not supplyanyvoltageto the load.It will be in a standby mode or it operates in the self charging mode if the energy storage device is fully charged. The energy storage device can be charged either from the power supplyitselforfromadifferentsource.

During a short circuit or fault in the downstream of the distribution line

In this case we have seen before that a bypass switch (crossbar switch) will be activated and it will bypass the inverter circuit in order to protect the electroniccomponentsoftheinverter.

4. OUTPUT

5. CONCLUSIONS

The hybrid model designed mainly focuses on the output optimization and power quality retention. The system designed is capable of maintaining its power at maximumlevelirrespectiveoftheenvironmentalchanges. The PV system operates at maximum power point even though there are fluctuations in temperature and irradiation levels also; the hydro system produces

maximum power despite the varying prime speed. Incorporationoftheincrementalconductancealgorithmof maximum power point tracking is used. The output characteristics of the Hybrid hydro/PV system are simulated considering the shading effect, varying temperature and speed. SEPIC converter is used to boost the tracked voltage and thus along with MPPT control its helps in maintaining a constant voltage. The output of CHB inverter is stepped down to 440V AC. The disturbances to the power quality caused by the faults leading to voltage sags are addressed by a power quality compensationscheme.TheDVRcontrolusedinthemodel iscapableofmaintainingthedesiredvoltageprofileofthe system thus helps in controlling the power quality of the system. The harmonics distortions present in the load voltage waveforms were observed using FFT analysis tool in MATLAB/Simulink. The total harmonic distortion is reduced to 1.06% from 7.94% with the incorporation of DVR. The functionality of the entire proposed model has been demonstrated by simulation, and the results obt IRJET sample template format ,Conclusion content comes here.
