The wind and solar powered car has high efficiency and is a maintenance free vehicle. The car works on the concept of charging and discharging of the battery on board. When the vehicle runs the motor consumes power from the battery and after certain kilometers, it needs to be recharged. In this car, power is generated from wind turbines and the solar modules and are directed to the battery for the charging. The battery is recharged on board and the car doesn’t need to be standby for charging. To conserve the energy and to utilize it at best we are designing a vehicle which will run on the battery which will get charged by free energy sources. Then as per the requirement, we connected the solar panel and wind energy generator motor

3. Introduction:
 PHEV finds the difficulty of charging it after few kilometers
but the wind and solar powered vehicle helps to eliminate this
drawback as this has the facility to be charged on board due to
wind and solar energy.
 The sun and the wind energy are utilized to charge battery and
generate the energy to run the vehicles smoothly.

4.  In the presence of sunlight battery gets charged from solar
panels and while moving in specific speed, irrespective of
presence of sunlight battery gets charged from wind turbine.

5. Objectives:
5
 To overcome low conversion rate of solar power.
To promote the usage of wind energy.
Use of non-conventional resources.
To make environmental friendly vehicle.

6. Principle:
a) solar energy:

Solar electric systems
use solar cells to convert the
Sun's radiant energy into
electricity. This is done using
a principle known as the
photovoltaic effect.

8. b) Wind energy:
 A wind turbine works
on a simple principle.
The energy in the wind
turns two or three
propeller-like blades
around a rotor. The
rotor is connected to the
main shaft, which spins
a generator to create
electricity.

15. Solar charge controller:
 A charge controller, or charge regulator is basically a voltage and/or
current regulator to keep batteries from overcharging. It regulates
the voltage and current coming from the solar panels going to the
battery.
 The primary role is to manage charging the battery bank, prevent it
from overcharging and many control the rate of the current and
voltage at which it charges.

16. Motor driver circuit (L293D):
 L293D is a typical Motor driver or Motor Driver IC which
allows DC motor to drive on either direction.
 L293D is a 16-pin IC which can control a set of two DC motors
simultaneously in any direction. It means that you can control
two DC motor with a single L293D IC

17. Dc motors:
 A machine that converts dc power into mechanical energy is known as dc
motor.
 If electrical energy is supplied to a conductor lying perpendicular to a
magnetic field, the interaction of current flowing in the conductor and the
magnetic field will produce mechanical force (and therefore, mechanical
energy).
 Its operation is based on the principle that when a current vehiclerying
conductor is placed in a magnetic field, the conductor experiences a
mechanical force.
 The direction of the force is given by Fleming’s left hand rule.

18. Battery (Lead acid -12v,1.3Ah):
 The oldest type of rechargeable battery. Despite having a very low energy-to-
weight ratio and a low energy-to-volume ratio, its ability to supply high surge
currents means that the cells have a relatively large power to weight ratio.
Most of the world's lead-acid batteries are automobile starting, lighting and
ignition(SLI) batteries.

19.  Very High reliability (combines wind and solar power)
 No pollution, clean and pure energy
 As source of energy are renewable, it is environmental friendly
 Energy efficiency and power quality is high
 Cost of recharge is free and long term warranty
 Lighter and easy to charge
 Low operating cost and low maintenance cost
Advantages:
19

20. Disadvantages:
 Initial investment is more .
 The arrangement becomes complicated due to the hybrid
structure.
 Large number of harmonics is produced.
 Wind energy system are noisy in operation.

21. Application:
 Remote and rural area village electrification
 Flexible to use
 Residential colonies and apartment general lighting
 Street lighting
 Both Ac as well as Dc load can be run

22.  By combining the two intermittent source of wind and solar
energy and by incorporating maximum power point tracking
(mppt) algorithms, the system’s power transfer efficiency and
reliability can be improved significantly.
 Here we try to found key features for improve solar energy
conversion that is distance, angle, wavelength and temperature.
 By the use of hybrid vehicles we can eliminate the usage of
fossil fuels.
 Higher efficiency than the individual system
Conclusion:
22

23.  When the entire world is facing the svehiclecity of petrol and
the gasoline prices are touching the sky, Hybrid vehicles have
come up as a promising and a feasible option to cope with the
situation.
 The use of hybrids is being encouraged by many governments
in the world.
