Nanjing Oulu Electric Wind-Solar Hybrid Power System Introduction
Nanjing Oulu Electric Wind-Solar Hybrid Power System
The wind-solar hybrid power system generates electricity through both wind turbines and solar PV modules. Solar arrays and wind turbines produce AC power, which is converted to DC by a hybrid controller and stored in battery banks. When power is needed, an inverter transforms the stored DC power back into AC for distribution to electrical loads.
System Components:
Wind turbine
Solar PV array
Hybrid controller
Pure sine wave inverter
Battery bank
1. Complementary Characteristics
Solar and wind energy exhibit strong temporal and regional complementarity:
Sunny days: High solar output, lower wind
Cloudy/rainy days: Low sunlight but increased wind
Nighttime: No solar power, but temperature differences generate wind
This natural synergy ensures continuous, stable power supply.
2. Working Principle
Daytime (sunlight): Solar panels convert light to electricity, powering loads and charging batteries.
Night/rainy (windy): Wind turbines generate power from wind, supplying loads and storing excess energy.
No sun/wind: Batteries discharge stored power to maintain operation.

4. Operating Modes of Nanjing Oulu Electric Wind-Solar Hybrid Power System
The standalone wind-solar hybrid power system operates in the following modes:
Hybrid Power Mode: Both solar PV arrays and wind turbines supply energy simultaneously.
Windless Mode: When wind speed is insufficient, only solar PV arrays provide power for loads and battery charging.
Sunless Mode: Only wind turbines operate to generate electricity.
Battery Discharge Mode: When neither wind nor solar is available, the backup battery bank supplies power to the loads.
