ABSTRACT
The increase in energy demands brings attention towards the renewable power generation system to improve energy conversion and utilization systems. The solar energy is a renewable resource that is suitable for power generation because of its infinite existence and eco-friendly nature. Since solar power output highly depends on ecological factors, which includes sun radiation and temperature, the system should be properly optimized to achieve better efficiency. Hence, this chapter focuses mainly on the integration of solar photovoltaic and electricity board (EB) source for sustaining the electric power system to satisfy the energy demand throughout the adequate insolation. The proposed system implements the modeling of the hybrid renewable energy system with an event-based switching mechanism with advanced controlling techniques using the MATLAB simulation software. Initially, the proposed system compares the available solar power along with load demand and starts delivering power to the residential buildings. Once the solar power does not exist, then the solar power system switches over the power supply process to the EB source to power up the entire buildings. Thus, hybridizing the energy generation system enhances the assurance of load demands the entire time, and also the energy management process can be achieved effectively. Finally, the simulation outcomes and the system feasibility of the proposed design have been reported in this chapter.
