How to measure energy contribution of solar panel 1200 watts + 3 blade vertical axis turbine each 150 watts synchronous generators giving DC output afters rectification in a microgrid the output is given to a hybrid inverter?
Hi Dr. Soorya,
It depends on the accuracy required, the time available, and the level of complexity you're willing to take.
Ideally an hourly wind data (speed, temp., pressure) is required to estimate the energy output in addition to some data and assumptions concerning your system, i.e., the turbine, the converter..etc.
The same goes for the solar panels you would need an hourly data of (solar radiation, air temp, wind speed,...) and some other data about your system (the solar cells).
These can be very complex calculations.
Otherwise you can just take the average daily or annual data and base your estimation on that.
Start with RETScreen and see how it goes.
Hope this helps,
Abdo,
Dear Abdo...Thanks... The problem is with measurement of instantaneous power measurement separately through any device....
Soorya....

In fact the output from solar panels as well as the wind generator terminals is DC . For measurement of individual contribution (Energy Generated) , DC energy meter(Recording Type) ,Dual channel is required. It can be designed with the help of Arduino. The current rating of the device should match with the maximum load current.
Dear sir
For electrical power production solely you can visit two of my papers in my page in researchgate.
