Abstract

A hybrid tree is a man-made object that resembles a real tree and has branches on which solar panels or wind turbines are installed. Mobile phones, laptops, electric cars, home appliances, and lighting loads spanning small or huge regions may all be powered by it, making it the best energy source for contemporary society and sustainable cities. This study provides a 3 kW hybrid tree design, which can produce the most energy utilising a two-axis tracking system, to be put at Vaddeswaram, Andhra Pradesh (16.26 N and 80.36 E). The hybrid tree will consist of 2 kW solar and 1 kW wind. Additionally, many energy tree designs and uses that are available globally are shown. Solar panels' P-V and I-V properties were measured at various temperatures and irradiation levels. wind turbine, The study looked at power characteristics at various wind speeds and the power co-efficient at various tip speed ratios. At various tilt angles between 10 and 20, power generation research for the hybrid tree was conducted. To confirm whether the structure can bear the applied loads, structural optimisations are carried out. With the two-axis tracking system, the suggested solar-wind hybrid tree may produce 4709 kWh/year as opposed to 3763 kWh/year when solar panels are mounted at an 18.25 tilt angle.
