Abstract
The effective management of energy in distribution systems has established a lot of attention in recent years. Effective control of both solar-wind generation and demand essential in achieving energy savings and reducing overall energy costs. This study explores the integration of Hybrid Renewable Energy System (HRES) combining Photovoltaic (PV) and wind-based sources for stable grid operation. The proposed structure employs a Landsman converter with Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) for efficient voltage and power extraction from the PV system. Additionally, a Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG)-based Wind Energy Conversion System (WECS) is utilized, controlled by a Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) rectifier for harvesting alternate energy from the wind. A bidirectional buck-boost converter is incorporated for managing the charging and discharging of hybrid energy storage devices. The proposed structure implemented by MATLAB/Simulink, with results showing a proposed converter achieve high efficiency of 96.5%, providing stable voltage for grid applications.
