Solar-diesel hybrid power plant battery charging systems

Abstract

This study aims to examine the charging current of a solar energy hybrid generator with a Genset/Diesel and the time used to fill the accumulator in conditions without load and load conditions. The results showed that the solar energy hybrid generator and Genset/Diesel prototypes were able to produce electrical power at 08.00-17.00 in the average sunny weather of 290.7 Wp without loading and at the time of load of 236.4 Wp. At night, the energy stored in the battery is converted into electrical energy to supply the load. Thus it can save electrical energy.
