Development of a Model Wind and Solar Power Installation Comprising High　Temperature Superconductors 　　 Abstract 　　The investigation of main performance properties of the hybrid wind and solar power installation with application superconductive elements was carried out. In the frames of the study， both mathematical simulations and experimental testing were performed. The study shows some difficulties to be solved during mutual operation of the various high-temperature superconductivity （HTSC） devices， especially if they operate with semi-conductive systems. 　　Key words： Hybrid wind； Solar power installation； High-temperature superconductivity （HTSC）； Renewable energy； Simulation； SMES； Fault current limiter； Physical modeling 　　L.

The main aim of the researches in this field is focused on the improving of the overall efficiency of such installations. The objective can be obtained by： improvement of the solar panels power output， improvement of wind generator efficiency and improvement of control methods and algorithms for entire installation. 　　Solar and wind are intermittent energy sources as they vary over time and do not usually meet load demands at all periods. Among these two types of renewable energy， wind is a more affective source compared to photovoltaic due to its variability. Similarly， the photovoltaic system also depends on the weather conditions and can operate only at day-
