About Our Project

          In recent times, DC systems and DC microgrids have gained significant popularity. Most electric loads today use DC current. Even AC motors are more and more driven by motor controllers using AC/DC followed by DC/AC conversion, which allows variable speed control. Distributed renewable energy sources like photovoltaic panels and fuel cells are inherently DC or use a DC link to decouple rotations speeds from the AC grid such as wind power. Batteries are DC in general and their application is evolving in electric vehicles and other devices. Therefore, it is reasonable to look into using DC to connect all these DC sources and loads. 

          However, high dependency on weather conditions and the unpredictable nature of these renewable energy sources are the main drawbacks. To overcome this weakness, different green energy sources and power electronic converters need to be integrated with each other. This study presents a battery storage hybrid standalone photovoltaic-wind energy power supply system. Based on the simulation results obtained from MATLAB/Simulink, it has been found that the overall hybrid framework is capable of working under variable weather and load conditions. This system will be used to power a weather station which would in turn provide the necessary environmental conditions like temperature, wind speed, altitude and so on to determine the trajectory of any rifle or handgun load.
