Abstract

The main aim of this paper is integration and generation of quality power through a grid-connected hybrid fuel cell, solar and wind energy conversion (WECS) systems by using Fuzzy MPPT technique. In this paper the power sources like fuel cell, solar energy and WECS are used for the generation of electrical power. Furthermore, the wind, solar and fuel cell inputs have to be combined appropriately to ensure that the load on demand is constantly continued and maintained. In fact, all these power sources are connected to the dc bus through the buck-boost converter. By using the fuzzy Maximum Power Point Tracking system, these converters are managed to improve efficiency compared with Hill-Climbing Search methods and P & O MPPT techniques. Using the MATLAB/Simulink platform, simulation studies of the proposed system are carried out and the results are presented.
