Every device we use in our day-to-day life such as mobile phone, computer, induction cookers, washing machines, vacuum cleaners, etc. requires electric power supply. Thus, the advancement in technology is increasing the electrical and electronic appliances usage which, in turn is increasing the power demand. Thus, to meet the load demand, different techniques are used for electric power generation. In the recent times, to avoid pollution and to conserve non-renewable energy resources like coal, petroleum, etc., renewable energy sources like solar, wind, etc. are being preferred for power generation. The combination of renewable energy sources can also be used for generating power called as hybrid power system. As a special case, we will discuss about the working of solar-wind hybrid system in this paper report. Solar and wind hybrid power systems are designed using solar panels and small wind turbine generators for generating electricity. Generally, these solar wind hybrid systems are capable of small capabilities. The typical power generation capacities of solar wind hybrid systems are in the ranges from 1 kW to 10 kW. Objectives of this are- To create new opportunities in low wind speed areas, with starting speed as low as 1.5m/s, combined with solar panels for non intermittent operation. By use of magnetic levitation in windmill to reduce the friction & eliminate the need of bearings in windmill. It convert wind and solar energy into electrical energy remarkably cheap with low operating cost. By use of Magnetic levitation, due to absence of friction, conversion of energy with very less noise compared to existing conventional wind mills take place. It Harnesses eco-friendly and non-polluting energy resources effectively. Use of low voltage devices, hence safe for use and installation. It provide continuous power from hybrid of solar and wind energy conversion.
