Abstract

This work considers the dynamic modeling and simulation of a DC hybrid power system for a rural base transceiver station in Nigeria currently being powered by an AC diesel generator (DG). The transient behaviour of the system is studied under varying solar irradiation to ascertain the stability of the power supplied to the sensitive telecommunication equipment. Each component of the system is designed and simulated in a MATLAB/Simulink environment and connected to form the whole system. A permanent Magnet DC diesel generator is used as back-up power for the system. A detailed presentation of the solar array, buck converter, battery storage system, battery controller, diesel generator and the load are presented in this paper. The result shows a stable power output to the load at rated voltage of 48 V.
