Abstract: Increasing the use of renewable sources of energy like solar and wind has become a necessity over the use of non-renewable resources, mainly due to the fear of these resources becoming scarce which will be insufficient to satisfy the needs of the ever increasing worldly population. This paper provides a method for synchronizing the renewable energy supply from solar and wind with the grid supply with phase locked loop (PLL) technique using MATLAB software. It also includes solar and wind separate power generating system. This synchronization is required because the renewable energy sources are variable in nature, therefore grid synchronized inverters are used as an interface for synchronizing and controlling the renewable sources of energy with the grid. This is a 3-phase inverter having multiply functions and is mainly used to inject the power produced by the renewable sources into the grid. The concept of renewable energy & synchronization is demonstrated using MATLAB/Simulink software which gives the accurate results & graphs. In the recent years, the renewable energy share in the total energy production has increased substantially and has now commenced its support to the distribution grids thus reducing the dependency on the polluting power plants.
