Abstract
The accelerating demand for clean and sustainable energy sources has led to increased interest in harnessing solar and wind energy. This study suggested an integrated energy harvesting system consisting of solar and wind resources in the tourist town Manali, Himachal Pradesh. The goal of this system is to make use of the ample amount of sunlight and wind resources available in this area. The solar modules are positioned in such a manner that they capture maximum sunlight across Manali's varying terrains. Simultaneously, wind turbines are located to leverage the region's wind turbine to ensure continuous and wind ranging energy supply. The combined output from solar and wind is then directed to a sophisticated super capacitor-based energy storage system. The study also focuses on economic feasibility, environmental impact, and long-term sustainability.
