The controller for the Hybrid Power Plant (HPP) is represented in a block diagram format. It consists of 440 Wp photovoltaic modules, a 1 kW wind turbine, and a 5 kW diesel engine as a backup power source. The HPP operates as a centralized photovoltaic and wind power generation facility, utilizing batteries to store the generated direct current (DC) electricity. To ensure reliability during emergencies, a conventional diesel generator is included in the system.
The primary component of the HPP is the controller, an electronic device that automatically manages the operation of the backup diesel engine to assist in electricity production. A current meter is employed to measure the current output from the solar panels, exhibiting minimal power loss for currents in the 0-10A range. Additionally, it functions as a general-purpose DC current meter.
The Gate Boost Solar Engine employs a 1381 voltage regulator, a 2N7000 MOSFET, and a 2N3906 transistor, utilizing a unique voltage doubler to enhance the voltage applied to the gate of the MOSFET. Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) is an electronic system that optimizes the operation of photovoltaic modules, allowing them to produce their maximum potential power. Unlike mechanical tracking systems that adjust the physical position of the modules to face the sun, MPPT dynamically varies the electrical operating point to maximize power output.
The MPPT solar charge controller is designed for users developing an MPPT-based lead-acid battery charger. This controller ensures that the photovoltaic modules operate at their maximum power point, enabling efficient energy transfer to the battery. A photovoltaic solar battery regulator and load controller are also included in the system, which allows solar cell arrays to connect to various battery types—such as conventional lead-acid, sealed lead-acid, or lithium batteries—without the risk of overcharging. This device can drive two different electrical loads from the batteries at two distinct charge states to enhance power usage efficiency.
A pyranometer to current converter circuit is proposed to convert the low-level DC signal from the pyranometer into DC current for long cable metering applications. This circuit utilizes the TLV2451, a rail-to-rail input/output operational amplifier manufactured by Texas Instruments.
Furthermore, a solar cell battery charger circuit is designed to provide voltage regulation and isolation while charging lead-acid batteries with a solar cell, particularly effective for solar panels less than 100 watts. Solar charger circuits specifically intended for charging sealed lead-acid batteries in compact and portable applications are also discussed.
An energy meter for solar systems measures the amount of AC energy produced by the photovoltaic power system. It incorporates a photocoupler connected to an electromechanical energy meter to detect the number of revolutions.
The project also includes a solar-powered reading lamp designed to function autonomously for students in developing countries, enabling nighttime reading. Additionally, solar-powered robots are mentioned, which operate solely on light without the need for batteries, utilizing readily available components such as transistors, resistors, capacitors, solar batteries, and flashing LEDs.
Lastly, the Sun-Up Alarm serves as an audible alert for sunrise or can detect light in dark areas, including light beams and headlights. A light intensity sensor is also integrated into the system.
