Integration of DG systems composed of Photovoltaic and a Micro-turbine in remote areas

Utility side consumers are in the remote areas who are not linked by the central electrical grid network, hybrid systems such as Photovoltaic/Microturbine have been considered as the most reliable, desired and attractive unconventional source of power supply. This documents the analysis and simulation of a Photovoltaic/Microturbine hybrid system using MATLAB/SIMULINK, simpower system block sets as its simulation software. The system is designed entirely based on the concept of a parallel hybrid configuration. The software modeling of a Photovoltaic/Microturbine system provides an in-depth understanding of the system operation before building the actual system and also the testing and experiments of system operation under disturbances is not possible on the actual system.
