In hybrid power systems, a number of electricity production and storage elements are combined to meet the energy demand of a facility a home, a ranch or farm, a telecom station or even a whole community.

In addition to PV systems, engine generators, wind generators, small hydro plants, other source of electrical energy can be added as needed to meet the energy demand in a way that fits in with the local geography and other specifics. Hybrid systems are ideal for remote applications such as communication stations, military installations, and rural villages.

The major advantage of solar / wind hybrid system is that when solar and wind power production systems are used together, the reliability of the system is enhanced. Additionally, the size of battery storage can be reduced slightly as there is less reliance on one method of power production. Often, when there is no sun, there is plenty of wind.

In comparison to solar modules, wind turbines can offer a more favourable dollar per watt ratio. Therefore a hybrid system is cheaper than a pure solar solution. Depending on one's budget it is also possible to start with a small solar system and then add panels over time to reach the desired system size. Fortune CP designs, supplies and installs innovative hybrid systems.
