Hybrid Power Generation Using Non-Conventional Energy Sources

Abstract

In today’s technology driven world electricity is one of the foremost thing in our day to day life. Due to the increase in demand of the electricity we are facing power cut problems; this might increase in the near future. In India 65% of the electricity is produced by conventional sources of energy. To compensate this power demand we need to shift from conventional to non-conventional source of energy to produce electricity. The electricity produced by non-conventional sources of energy is less than conventional, but conventional energy do not have any effect on the environment. Hybrid power generation system is basically an integration of solar panel, wind turbine, piezoelectric material to generate power and store the generated power in batteries. Here three sources of energy is implemented to provide uninterrupted supply during bad weather conditions. This project can be used to power up street lights on roadways and domestic houses.
