Solar Wind Hybrid Trainer

The instrument panel interface allows students to measure the outputs and determine efficiency. The system is mounted on a sturdy mobile 2x2 welded powder coated steel frame and has a student workbench. Solar Wind Hybrid Trainer has combined two of the most viable "green" electrical generation systems from carbon-free energy sources in the Using standard solar PV panels and circuit controls to safely charge the batteries, both the wind and solar photovoltaic concepts are presented so students learn how these systems work. The instrument module provides accurate power output readings. Also, an inverter is included for the power to be converted back to AC use in appliances. The energy can be stored in a battery protected by a charge controller.

Learn the theory and application of photovoltaic cells and wind generation of DC power to AC conversion for operating common electrical and electronic devices. Discover practical energy conversions from abundant carbon-free energy sources: the sun and wind.
