Hybrid Power Generation with VAWT & Solar Power Plant

Abstract

Wind and solar energy are abundant and non-traditional types of energy. We can use wind turbines and solar panels to generate electricity from these sources. The goal is to use wind and solar energy as efficiently as possible to produce the most electricity. This can be particularly useful for generating electricity on Indian highways, where we can harness the wind from moving vehicles and sunlight. The turbine is built according to specific designs. It has semi-circular blades attached to a disc connected to a shaft. The shaft is connected to the disc with a bearing, and gears are attached. A DC motor is connected to the gear. When the wind hits the blades, the DC motor generates power. This power is stored in a battery.
On the other hand, solar energy is captured by a panel and converted into electrical energy. Combining wind turbines and solar energy allows us to create a hybrid energy system that provides continuous power without interruptions. The electricity generated is stored in a battery and can be used for household purposes, streetlights, and highways. So, power is generated using both wind turbines and solar energy.
