<strong>Abstract</strong><br>
Abstract— Environmentally friendly solutions are becoming more prominent than ever as a result of concern regarding the 
state of our deteriorating planet. This paper presents a new system configuration of the front-end rectifier stage for a hybrid 
wind/photovoltaic energy system. This configuration allows the two sources to supply the load separately or simultaneously 
depending on the availability of the energy sources. The inherent nature of this Cuk-SEPIC fused converter, additional input 
filters are not necessary  to filter out high frequency harmonics. Harmonic content is detrimental for the generator lifespan, 
heating issues, and efficiency. The fused multi input rectifier stage also allows Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) to be 
used to extract maximum power from the wind and sun when it is available. An adaptive MPPT algorithm will be used for the 
wind system and a standard perturb and observe method will be used for the PV system.
