This paper introduces a new topology, yet simple and efficient, for a grid-connected wind-solar cogeneration system. A permanent magnet synchronous generator-based full-scale wind turbine is interconnected to the utility-grid via back-to-back voltage-source converters (VSCs). The dc-link capacitor has been utilized to directly interface a photovoltaic solar generator. No dc/dc conversion stages are required, and hence, the hybrid system is simple and efficient. Moreover, the proposed topology features an independent maximum power point tracking for both the wind and the solar generators to maximize the extraction of the renewable energy. The regulation of the VSCs is achieved via the vector control in the rotating reference frame. The detailed small-signal models for the system components are developed to characterize the overall stability. The influence of the utility-grid faults on the performance of the proposed system is also investigated. Nonlinear time-domain simulation results under different operating conditions are presented to validate the effectiveness of the proposed topology.
