MPPT FOR HYBRID WIND, SOLAR AND THERMOELECTRIC POWER GENERATION SYSTEMS FOR OFF-GRID APPLICATIONS

Renewable energy resources for electrical generation are normally free but not continuously available due to their sporadic availability. Thus, hybrid connections of various kinds made increase utilization renew-able energy. This paper involves a design renewable system employing maximum power point tracking (MPPT) techniques. The consists solar PV panels, small-scale wind turbine, and thermoelec-tric generator (TEG) module. Four MPPT techniques examined in this research. They the incremental conductance (IC) algorithm, fuzzy logic controllers (FLC) using 25 35 rules, an interval type 2 con-troller (IT2FLC). Each technique is tested determine which has best tracking, stable operation, efficiency. All studied connected DC linked bus. voltage bus supplied three-phase inverter. Inverter output regulated balanced unba¬lanced loads. generating capacity designed 5 kW simulated MATLAB Simulink R2017a.
