A PVMARS hybrid solar and wind energy system provides 24/7 uninterrupted power for your family, and it realizes free and independent power consumption.
No more electric bills and high fuel costs, maintenance fees, etc. For diesel/gasoline generators.
Introduction:
Mr. Kxx (User Privacy Protection) lives in the Philippines and is looking for renewable energy sources. Due to rising fuel costs and maintenance costs.
After thorough research online, he discovered an innovative solution combining solar and wind energy.
Solar-wind hybrid specialist Alex from PVMARS came up with this innovative concept, which proved ideal for Mr. Kxx’s home on an island in the Philippines.

Harnessing solar and wind energy:
Solar and wind energy systems provide a reliable and sustainable power solution.
By integrating these two renewable energy sources, Mr. Kxx can maximize power generation during the day and night.
Solar panels capture sunlight during the day and convert it into electricity.
Wind turbines can take advantage of the continuous supply of wind at an average speed of more than 5 m/s in the area where Mr. Kxx is located
It can still generate electricity and supply power on rainy days. Click on this article to learn how to check my local wind speed.
Add a water pump VFD to make the 5kW hybrid solar and wind energy system work better:
Alex thoroughly assessed Mr. Kxx’s energy needs via video call, noting the presence of various appliances such as water pumps, an air conditioner, and a small refrigerator.
To meet Mr. Kxx’s energy needs, Alex designed an integrated 5kW hybrid solar and wind energy system, plus a variable-frequency drive (VFD) for the water pump.
Inductive loads in general households include refrigerators, air conditioners, motors, and water pumps.
The characteristic of this type of load is that the instantaneous start-up power can be 3-6 times higher than the rated power, or even 10 times. Although it lasts 1-3 seconds, it also kills clean energy systems.
Whether it is a solar system, a wind power generator system, or a clean energy system such as a wind-solar hybrid system.
They all include DC-AC inverters, with the ability to convert DC power into AC power and deliver it to household loads.
This type of inverter is sensitive, which is good for the user. This is because when the doped current is sent to the delicate load, it will damage your home equipment.
The inverter is capable of avoiding such impurity currents and providing pure power for the load to work. Make your home appliances last longer and last longer.
Therefore, to reduce the customer’s input cost, Alex designed the VFD to independently reduce the instantaneous starting current of the water pump.
In this way, there is no need to design a high-power inverter, which increases the cost of the overall wind-solar hybrid system.
Maintenance of wind turbines:
During the installation, Alex provided Mr. Kxx with the necessary guidance on maintaining the wind turbine.
Regular maintenance is essential to ensure the optimal performance and longevity of your wind turbine.
It includes inspecting wind blade exteriors for damage, lubricating components, and monitoring electrical connections (see this blog for more details).
In addition, Alex emphasized the importance of regular professional inspections to detect and deal with potential problems before they escalate.
Conclusion:
By combining hybrid solar and wind energy systems, not only a sustainable source of electricity is ensured, but also the reliance on expensive fuel generators is reduced.
With regular maintenance, Mr. Kxx can enjoy the long-term benefits of this advanced energy solution, giving him peace of mind and a greener future.
Remember, adopting renewable energy not only benefits individuals like Mr. Kxx but also helps build a more sustainable planet.
Today, embrace the power of a hybrid solar and wind system and have a positive impact on the environment. In addition, enjoy its economic advantages.
