Analysis of Solar-Wind Hybrid System under Different Operating Conditions Using Matlab Simulation: A Comprehensive Review

The increasing global demand for sustainable and environmentally friendly energy has intensified research on renewable power generation systems. Among various renewable sources, solar photovoltaic (PV) and wind energy have emerged as the most reliable and widely adopted technologies. However, their intermittent nature due to changing weather conditions limits their standalone performance. To overcome this challenge, hybrid solar–wind energy systems have been developed to ensure continuous and stable power supply. This review paper presents a comprehensive analysis of solar–wind hybrid systems, focusing on their modeling, simulation, control strategies, and performance evaluation using MATLAB/Simulink. Various system configurations, energy storage techniques, power electronic interfaces, and optimization methods reported in recent literature are discussed. The study highlights the importance of effective synchronization, energy management, and control mechanisms in improving system reliability and efficiency. Additionally, current challenges and research gaps related to storage integration, real-time monitoring, and economic feasibility are identified. The findings emphasize that hybrid systems can significantly enhance energy availability and reduce dependency on fossil fuels. This review aims to provide valuable insights for researchers and engineers involved in the design and implementation of hybrid renewable energy systems.
