Abstract
There are many power generators available in our country to generate the power; here we design a model which generates power from renewable natural resources. To avoid the power crisis in our country and boost the development of rural areas the hybrid power generation is used to generate power throughout the day and night. The Word hybrid means something which is made by the combination of two or more element. In energy system the electricity can be generated by more than one source at a time like Wind, solar, biomass etc. There are various modules to generate hybrid energy like wind-solar hybrid, Solar-diesel, Wind- hydro and Wind–diesel. Among the above hybrid energy generation module the wind-Solar hybrid module are more important because it is abundant in nature and it is very environment friendly. Hybrid energy generation is more important because the wind does not flow continuously and sun radiation is only present approximately 6 to 9 hours a day. Thus for continuous power it is important to hybridize the solar and wind power with the storage batteries. The addition of water wheel can make the project to be implemented in agricultural fields. The hybridization in India has large prospect because over 75 % of Indian household face the problems due to power cut mainly in summer.
