Hybrid Wind and Solar Electric Systems | Department of Energy

Many hybrid systems are stand-alone systems, which operate "off-grid" -- that is, not connected to an electricity distribution system. For the times when neither the wind nor the solar system are producing, most hybrid systems provide power through batteries and/or an engine generator powered by conventional fuels, such as diesel. If the
