1 Introduction
The population growth has increased the energy demand. Just now, inexhaustible energy source is mostly concentrated to diminish the energy demand. Prior, the emphasis was independently on individual energy source (or) standalone system. The distribution generation system uses two or multi-source connected in hybrid ways to increase the outcomes. The hybrid frameworks such as wind/PV/diesel experimental analysis are carried out in [1] to reveal the truth that the standalone PV cluster fails to work in winter season. In turn to progress the power outcomes at changeable environmental condition, the hybrid system is proposed. The renewable energy source-based energy conversion technique and feasible power transfer are explained in [2]. In [3], the micro grid system with ultra short-term power prediction and feed forward control of energy management are applied in industrial park. The arrangement of hybrid system with PV and wind-based PMSG are accounted in [4] to augment maximum output voltage from inexhaustible energy source. In [5], hybrid framework with two converters, which act as diode bridge rectifier and single phase inverter, are connected to the grid. The proposed control schemes tracking maximum power from intermitted sources and achieve active power transfer which improves the voltage regulation. The renewable energy such as wind needs PMSG to convert mechanical energy to electrical. The boost converter is in planted in this framework to enhance the performance. In [6], the complex control algorithm such as B-spline artificial neural network is used. In [7,8,9,10,11,12], current controller, which controls the current path from source to grid, is proposed as hysteresis controller. The THD is removed by servo regulating DC-link voltage and PMSG stator current. In [13], the author presents the PV cell performance under different thermal conditions using virtual instrumentation.
1.1 Hybrid Framework with Wind-PV System
The diagrammatic layout of hybrid wind-PV system organized by PMSG; two converters namely wind side converter and grid side converter. The nonlinear load is connected on either side of two converters. The three phase voltage and current are given as input to the synchronous detection method (SDM). The solar cluster is arranged at the DC interface of transmission line. One of the MPPT methods such as P&O techniques are implemented to obtain maximum power from PV cluster. The effective power transfer is achieved from fuzzy logic controller and Hysteresis current controller. In this proposed plan, synchronous detection method (SDM) is used to compute the reference grid current of VSC by calculating the difference between reference source current and nonlinear load current (Fig. 1).
1.2 Design of WSC and GSC
The design procedure for WSC and GSC includes the rate of change of stator current of PMSG (\(\Delta i_{{L_{s} }}\)) determined from maximum wind power minimum voltage needs for boost converter.

1.3 MPPT Procedure for PV
The procedure involved to track the maximum power under varying sun illumination is P&O technique-based MPPT method. The perturb and observe technique is estimating change in power \(\Delta P_{\text{pv}}\) and \(P_{\text{pv}}\) from current and voltage of PV cluster. By perturbing and observing \(P_{\text{s}}\) power from PV, the precise maximum power is recognized from V-I bends of PV cluster.

2.1 Dynamic Current Controller for WSC
The converter gating pulse is generated from the synchronous detection method (SDM) scheme. The synchronous detection method computes the reference grid current by calculating the difference between the reference source current and nonlinear load current. The HC current controller compares the output of SDM such as reference current with actual current. The hysteresis controller process the current error signal to control the current path from stator of PMSG to actual WSC input current templates. The current controller at grid side converter reduces the harmonics and achieve unity power factor.
2.2 Voltage Controller for WSC
Unlike other methods, the fuzzy logic controller is rule-based membership function. The input of the fuzzy logic controller is the error signal. It is obtained by comparing the reference voltage and the actual voltage of DC link. The fuzzy logic controller process the error by controlling the voltage (Table 1).
2.3 Current Controller for GSC
The current controller proposed for grid side converter is hysteresis controller. From the synchronous detection method, the reference current is calculated which is given as input to the hysteresis controller. The grid side converter acts as shunt active power filter and compensate current imbalance because of nonlinear load at GSC. The synchronous detection method is utilized to determine the reference grid current
