Abstract
The purpose of this project is to design and build a double input DC/DC converter for controlling a hybrid system formed by a photovoltaic system and a vertical axis wind turbine, with the goal of tracking the maximum power point. Both power generation systems must be deeply studied in order to understand their principle of working and nd the most optimum MPPT algorithm for this purpose. Once the MPPT algorithm has been selected, it will be simulated with both power generation models. Several multiple input power converter topologies will be analysed and the most suitable for this application will be studied.A simulation will be carry on using the models developed for this purpose in order to study its behaviour. The selected double input converter will be simulated and the control system will be tested in the simulation. Finally it will be built and tested in the laboratory rst and afterwards with both power generation systems.
