Demand for energy, especially electricity, throughout the world, is increasingly growing rapidly. Renewable energy: wind, solar, geothermal, and hydroelectric and biomass provides substantial benefits for our climate, our health, and our economy. However it needs more investigations in terms of research. A special attention should be given on the optimization of energy production and its own integration in grids especially when the resources become multiple. The contribution of this paper is to study the technical and physical aspects to optimize the energy management in a multisource system dedicated to for rural area applications. The multi-source system is based on photovoltaic panels, wind turbine, solar PV and storage batteries. In this work, we present the modeling and simulation of the part composed of photovoltaic source and its DC / DC converter.
