About Journal

Central Power Research Institute (CPRI) is the power house of the Indian electrical industry. Set up in 1960 by the Government of India, it functions as a centre for applied research in electrical power engineering assisting the electrical industry in product development and quality assurance. CPRI also serves as an independent authority for testing and certification of power equipment. CPRI's governing body includes eminent professionals from industries & utilities, prestigious academic and research institutions & the government. It employs over 300 highly qualified and experienced engineers & scientists besides other supporting staff.

With its state-of-the art infrastructure and expertise, CPRI has made significant contributions to the power sector in the country for improved planning, operation and control of power systems. Besides in-house R&D, CPRI also undertakes sponsored research projects from manufacturers and other agencies in different areas of specialization.

Abstract

This paper presents the basic considerations for design of solar photovoltaic-wind-battery-grid connect hybrid power plants(HPPs). For ensuring the successful operation of hybrid power plants at low diesel input and low battery storage requirement, high level of reliability of power supply and reliability of component are essential. This paper provides factors involved in ensuring that high level of reliability of components and power availability is fulfilled in the hybrid plants. For both SPV and wind, the annual energy generation is divided into three regimes: summer, winter and rainy seasons and all these three have to fulfil the load requirement. It is seen that for 30% solar and 70 % wind generation curve is the smoothened with less variation.With improved day ahead predictability of both wind and solar the reliability can be improved considerably.
