Solar photovoltaic and wind energy resources are gaining more popularity as an integrated or complementary power system. Integrating or complementing either solar photovoltaic or wind energy would be an ideal to reduce the intermittency when self-intervention from either one of the input resources is performed. The self-intervention plays a vital role in renewable energy resources hybridization, hence this paper proposes to model and simulate an adaptive voltage-divider sensing method to perform the self-intervention technique for renewable energy resources hybridization using the Stateflow/Simulink MATLAB software. The proposed adaptive voltage-divider sensing method performs the voltage sensing and measurement for input voltages from either one of the renewable energy resources adopted. This voltage sensing and measurement is an important factor to demonstrate the self-intervention in the designed and developed Stateflow/Simulink MATLAB Controller. The proposed adaptive voltage-divider sensing method and self-intervention technique for renewable energy resources hybridization is analyzed along with the voltage sensing and measurement at the inputs. The self-intervention state modes for the inputs from the renewable energy resources hybridization are given by the simulation results in this study.
