Abstract - Hybrid power generating systems, which integrate several sources to improve energy production efficiency, have been developed in response to the growing demand for clean and renewable energy sources. In order to capture the plentiful energy from the sun and wind and provide a consistent and sustainable supply of electricity, this abstract proposes a hybrid power generator that combines solar and wind mill technology. During the day, photovoltaic (PV) panels are used by the proposed hybrid power generator to transform solar radiation into electrical energy. Concurrently, the kinetic energy of wind flows is captured by a wind mill system outfitted with effective wind turbines. Advanced control algorithms are used to regulate the power flow between the solar and wind components in order to accomplish seamless integration and enhance system performance. By facilitating effective coordination between the two subsystems, these algorithms guarantee that excess energy is either delivered to the grid or saved for later use. Additionally, the hybrid power generator stores extra electricity for use at times when solar or wind availability is limited by utilizing energy storage technologies like batteries. This feature increases the system's dependability and enables it to deliver power continuously even in the face of changing climatic conditions. There are various benefits to using a hybrid power generator. Furthermore, the hybrid system reduces the intermittency problems related to each specific technology by utilizing energy from two complementing sources. Additionally, enhanced grid stability and increased power generation efficiency are made possible by this hybrid strategy.
