Renewable energy sources have become a popular alternative electrical energy source where power generation in conventional ways is not practical. In the last few years the photovoltaic and wind power generation have been increased significantly. In this study, we proposed a hybrid energy system which combines both solar panel and wind turbine generator as an alternative for conventional source of electrical energy like thermal and hydro power generation. A simple control technique which is also cost effective has been proposed to track the operating point at which maximum power can be coerced from the PV system and wind turbine generator system under continuously changing environmental conditions. The entire hybrid system is described given along with comprehensive simulation results that discover the feasibility of the system. The model is intended to be used as an optimization and design tool for such hybrid systems applied to organic constructions. After an error analysis it was determined that this model predicted quite interesting results compared to the experimental data under various conditions. It is important to indicate that this analysis has been carried out so that in future, these power generation systems can be exploited and applied more efficiently in areas far from the public electricity grid.
