Abstract
In recent years, renewable energy source based Microgrid are getting immense consideration due to its capabilities to overcome the Green House Gas (GHG) emission. Thus, in addition to the utilization of renewable energy sources and proper monitoring of Microgrid, we need such type trained engineers who have betters understanding about microgrid since their college days. Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD) India is investing a huge amount of money and trying to produce good quality engineers by opening many training centres and also by offering reputed educational institution of India to come forward to assist. Research Question: How can we educate our electrical engineering students so that they can easily learn during their course work and have good technical skills as well as practical knowledge? Methodology: To nourish and have good practical knowledge about hybrid microgrid system for electrical engineering students, we set up a hybrid microgrid system in laboratory in which we took combination of Solar PV panel, solar emulator, wind emulator, battery bank, fuel cell, AC/DC converters, DC/AC inverters and grid power where our students can do different experiments based on hybrid microgrid system.
