Abstract: A hybrid generator is designed for both wind energy and photovoltaic system (PV) based on permanent magnet synchronous generator to maintain dc link voltage. In this paper, both the sources are connected with grid through a single ended primary inductor converter (SEPIC) and three phase inverter is followed by SEPIC converter. The fuzzy logic controller used to provide gate pulses for the converter and model predictive controller is providing pulses to three phase inverter which tracking the highest power from the wind and PV system. In the PV system the maximum power point tracking (MPPT) method is used to get higher power from the source. This new hybrid system operation is done by both the effective controllers and system steady is achieved. The integrated energy with high efficiency is directed to grid for distribution and the system is verified in Matlab/Simulink and simulation results are given with model.
