Bundling of Wind & Solar power generating units for maximum power output
System utilizing only solar electric energy as main source of energy
System utilizing only wind electric energy as main source of energy
Round the clock power generation and throughout the year as wind and solar are complementary in nature.
Power generation only during daytime, maximum generation between 11 am to 4 pm on sunny days
Maximum generation during late night hours and early morning hours. Major generation during windy seasons of May to September
Mitigates daily and seasonal fluctuations of standalone wind and solar systems by leveraging their complementary nature
Lower power generation in shorter days and cloudy weather (especially during rainy season)
High power generation during rainy season when even electricity demand is low
Fulfils 75%-80% of energy requirements even with TOD based adjustment restrictions
With TOD restrictions on wheeling and banking adjustment, only 50-55% of energy can be mitigated
Depending on wind patterns and banking period restrictions, can only fulfil about 50%-55% of energy requirements
Fulfils up to 60% of energy requirements even with 15 mins energy settlement restrictions
Cannot fulfil more than 20%-30% of energy requirements with 15 min energy settlement restrictions
Cannot fulfil more than 20%-30% of energy requirements with 15 min energy settlement restrictions
It can be designed for 24x7 round the clock generation and at just the right amount that matches Prosumers base load generation curve throughout the year
Generation curve closely depends or resembles on time of day and time of the year concept.

Medium, highly dependent on state regulations regarding wheeling and banking
Medium, highly dependent on state regulations regarding wheeling and banking
More economical and easier to maintain due to common equipment’s and systems used of Solar & Wind at the same location.
Independent solar plant equipment’s and systems located at remote location
Independent wind farm equipment’s and systems located at remote location
Savings in project cost comes due to common usage of resources and infrastructure. Like optimisation of land, power evacuation, infra operation, components, and manpower during O&M activities.
