Abstract

Hybrid power system (HPS) is an electricity generation system combining renewable energy resources and conventional generators. Several components will be utilized in a hybrid power system namely as: conventional generators (diesel generator, synchronous generator, DC generator for field excitation of synchronous generator), renewable energy resources (such as wind generator, photovoltaic system, etc.), power electronic converter, components’ controller, and also a supervisory control system to control the whole power system. In this chapter, an overview of hybrid power system and a brief description of important possible parts of a hybrid power system is introduce.
