Keywords:
Hybrid Power System, Solar and Wind Energy, Public Street Lighting, Renewable Energy, Off-Grid SystemAbstract
The utilization of renewable energy as an alternative power source has become increasingly critical in reducing dependence on fossil fuels and mitigating environmental impacts. This study aims to design and implement a hybrid power generation system by integrating solar and wind energy for public street lighting applications. The system design includes the selection and integration of key components such as photovoltaic (PV) panels, wind turbines, lead-acid batteries, and charge controllers. Simulations and performance analyses were conducted to identify optimal installation sites capable of providing stable power output sufficient to meet the energy demands of street lighting. The results demonstrate that the hybrid power system can generate adequate electricity with high efficiency, ensuring reliable operation of street lights. The combination of solar and wind energy significantly enhances system stability and reliability, particularly under variable weather conditions. Furthermore, the implemented control system effectively maintains stable voltage and current output to the lighting load. This research contributes to the advancement of renewable energy technologies and their practical application in everyday infrastructure. The proposed hybrid system offers a sustainable and effective solution for addressing future energy and environmental challenges in urban and remote areas
