My capstone group is building a hybrid energy generator that will integrate a solar panel, wind turbine and wave energy generator (turbine). This is a pretty challenging project considering we're all mechanical engineering students and have little to no experience with circuits. Through some research and looking at a similar project done by another group, this is what I've come up with. I used 123D Circuits to construct this schematic (I couldn't make heads or tails of LabView). We are using an Arduino Mega as our controller. Any advice would be appreciated!
The AC source on the bottom is the wave turbine.
