This new grid-connected configuration employs a closed loop controller at the inverter interfaced to the PV array to regulate the current fed to the grid. By varying the reference current to the controller the PV array meets the reactive power needs of the induction generator (IG) and also acts as a source of real power to the grid. In hybrid power systems, a number of power generators and storage components are combined to meet the energy demand of remote or rural area, or even a whole community. In addition to PV generators, wind generators, small hydro plants, and others sources of electrical energy can be added as needed to meet the energy demand in a way that fits the local geography and other specifics. Before developing a hybrid electric system for a specific site, it is essential to know the particular energy demand and the resources available at that site. Therefore, energy planners must study the solar energy, wind, and other potential resources at the site, in addition to the energy demand. This will allow them to design the kind of hybrid power system that meets the demands of the facility at best.
