This paper introduces method for on-grid electrifi cation of villages. A potential function for each component like wind turbine, fuel cell, voltage regulator unit, control box, DC coupling device and DC blocking device is used in this work. Secondary voltage control is achieved through voltage regulator unit. The studies are simulated in time-domain continuous mode using MATLAB/Simulink. Wind-fuel cell based hybrid energy system is tested with various wind speed. It is observed that the proposed system is working satisfactorily.
