Abstract: This review paper focuses on hybrid power generation using solar and wind energy as sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives to conventional energy sources. It highlights the growing need for renewable energy due to increasing energy demand and depletion of fossil fuels. Solar energy, based on the photovoltaic effect, generates electricity during daylight, while wind energy utilizes air movement through turbines. Since both sources are intermittent, the hybrid system ensures continuous and reliable power supply by combining them with energy storage systems. The paper explains various technologies used in solar and wind power generation, including photovoltaic cells, solar thermal systems, and different types of wind turbines. It also discusses innovative methods such as vertical axis wind turbines and highway wind energy generation. The advantages of hybrid systems include improved efficiency, reduced environmental impact, and suitability for remote and off-grid areas. However, challenges like high initial cost and dependency on weather conditions are also addressed. The study emphasizes the importance of technological advancements, energy storage, and government support for wider adoption. Overall, hybrid renewable energy systems are presented as a promising solution for achieving sustainable and reliable power generation in the future.
