A hybrid energy system, or hybrid power, usually consists of two or more renewable energy sources used together to provide increased system efficiency as well as greater balance in energy supply. Floating solar is usually added to existing hydro rather than building both together. Hybrid solar and wind system
Indeed, the structure of the hybrid system may contain one or more combination of renewable energy sources. An important criterion for the selection of the source used is the availability of the energy potential, which depends on where the hybrid system is installed. Another determining factor is the powered electric consumer.
Another example of a hybrid energy system is a photovoltaic array coupled with a wind turbine. This would create more output from the wind turbine during the winter, whereas during the summer, the solar panels would produce their peak output.
There are numerous options for energy integration in hybrid systems, as there can be combinations of renewable and conventional generators. A typical example is an integrated diesel generator–photovoltaic–battery system.
Pang et al. (2019) used a frequency-based method for sizing the hybrid energy storage system (wind, super-capacitor, and battery) to smoothen wind power fluctuations for minimum total cost. Results indicated that the hybrid energy storage system offered the best performance of the wind power system in terms of cost and lifetime.
