Solar/Wind Hybrid Systems A hybrid system ia a combination of solar system and wind system (other systems include a generator, fuel cell and grid electricity). These applications have the following advantages:
System include: 1. PV Array: A number of PV panels connected in series and/or in parallel giving a DC output out of the incident irradiance. Orientation and tilt of these panels are important design parameters, as well as shading from surrounding obstructions. 2. Wind turbine: which is installed on top of a tall tower, collects kinetic energy from the wind and converts it to electricity that is compatible with a home"s electrical system. 3. Solar controller: control battery bank charge and discharge reasonable and safety. 4. Wind controller: 5. Battery bank: can be a single battery or multiple batteries connected together to create essentially one large battery of the required voltage and amp-hour capacity. In some ways the battery configuration and capacity are the most important electrical power decision to make, and a wise choice can help guarantee a steady supply of electrical power as well as a system that is simple to operate and maintain. 6. Inverter: A power converter that "inverts" the DC power from the panels into AC power. 7. Loads: Stands for the network connected appliances in the building that are fed from the inverter(AC loads), or from the battery bank(DC loads). View Prices
