Abstract

Nowadays, a lot of electrical energy supplied to the road such as intersection lamp, street lamp indicator, street lamp and others. The cost of electricity can be saved by using renewable energy to produce electricity. Wind and solar energy have being popular ones owing to abundant, ease of availability and convertibility to the electric energy. Thus, a project hybrid generator based on wind and solar for small scale electronic devices will be developed as means to supply electricity to model of highway and roads. The hybrid system in this project is one combining wind turbine and PV module with rechargeable battery for energy backup purpose. This project covers realization of a hybrid solar-wind generator for small scale electronic devices, which a caution signage with LEDs signage such as turn left or right arrow usually are installed at highways and roads to advise users when driving. These LEDs signage usually are powered by non-rechargeable batteries. However, for a long run, it is not economical. This project investigate the solar and wind energy potential and requirement for installation at highways or roads, design and model a hybrid solar-wind generator for small scale electronic devices and test and evaluate the real working states and performance of the completed hybrid system.
