Abstract : Electricity is an integral part for the survival of human beings in the era; a lack of electricity is stripping a person of his opportunity to develop and move forward. Though India is almost fully electrified, there still exist certain parts that haven't yet received electricity due to a number of reasons. The places that has access to electricity, its reliability is still under question The development of hybrid microgrids presents a sustainable and cost-effective solution for electrifying rural areas. By integrating photovoltaic systems (PV) with other renewable energy sources, in this case a biogas-powered generator, battery storage, and connection to the main power grid, hybrid systems ensure reliability, reduce dependency on fossil fuels, and mitigate power shortages. This work explores the design and implementation of a microgrid that manages two energy sources and a battery system. By integrating renewable resources and leveraging innovative storage and control strategies, this hybrid microgrid design demonstrates the potential for a cost-effective, reliable, and environmentally friendly energy solution. The proposed system also provides better quality of power produced due to its less TDH value.
