Abstract

A novel concept known as a "hybrid tree" is presented in this paper, representing an innovative artificial structure designed to mimic the natural form of a tree. This unique structure features branches that support both solar modules and wind turbines, effectively harnessing renewable energy. The hybrid tree stands as an environmentally friendly and efficient power source, capable of catering to a wide range of energy needs across diverse areas, both small and large. Consequently, it emerges as an ideal solution for fostering sustainability in cities and modern societies. This research paper introduces a specific design for a 3 kW hybrid tree, which comprises 2 kW of solar panels and 1 kW of wind turbines. This particular design is planned for deployment in Vaddeswaram, Andhra Pradesh, situated at coordinates 16.26°N and 80.36°E. Notably, the hybrid tree incorporates a sophisticated two-axis tracking system, optimizing energy generation by ensuring the solar panels and wind turbines are consistently aligned with the sun and wind sources.
