Abstract The detailed response is presented here to the comments in the letter to Editor on our published paper “Analysis of fixed tilt and sun tracking photovoltaic micro wind based hybrid power systems [ECM 115 (2016) 265–275]” [1]. The main objective of the study was to identify the potential of different PV configurations for a roof mounted 6 kWp PV-wind hybrid system at Hamirpur in Indian Western Himalayan location. In this paper optimum configurations for this hybrid system were studied, using fixed and tracking photovoltaic systems. A comparative power generation analysis of different configurations of the hybrid system with fixed tilt, monthly optimum tilt, yearly optimum tilt and different PV tracking, was carried out using Hybrid Optimization Model for Electric Renewables (HOMER) legacy version based on the measured data for this location. The queries raised by a reader in a letter to Editor, has been addressed. The study results presented were based on the measured climatic data of the location for a 6 kWp educational and research hybrid system using HOMER (legacy version) and such cannot be generalized for any other location without further analysis. The follow up research is also discussed.

固定倾斜和太阳跟踪光伏微风混合动力系统的分析 [ECM 115 (2016) 265–275]：对致编辑的评论的回应

摘要 在此对我们发表的论文“基于固定倾斜和太阳跟踪光伏微风的混合动力系统的分析 [ECM 115 (2016) 265–275]”[1] 的致编辑的信中的评论做出了详细回应。该研究的主要目标是确定不同光伏配置在印度喜马拉雅西部地区哈米尔普尔的屋顶安装 6 kWp 光伏-风能混合系统的潜力。在本文中，使用固定和跟踪光伏系统研究了该混合系统的最佳配置。固定倾角、月最佳倾角、年最佳倾角和不同光伏跟踪的混合动力系统不同配置的发电对比分析，基于该位置的测量数据，使用电动可再生能源混合优化模型 (HOMER) 旧版进行。读者在给编辑的信中提出的问题已得到解决。所提供的研究结果基于使用 HOMER（旧版）的 6 kWp 教育和研究混合系统的位置测量气候数据，如果没有进一步分析，则无法将其推广到任何其他位置。还讨论了后续研究。
