I want to build a small-scale hybrid renewable power system—solar panels, wind turbines and tidal generators all working together—inside SimulIDE, driven solely by an Arduino sketch. The goal is purely educational: I need to show that combining these three sources is feasible and to let students see exactly how each part talks to the others. Because of that, the spotlight is on component interactions rather than chasing perfect efficiency or bullet-proof stability.

Your task is to create the full SimulIDE project and the matching Arduino code so that:

• the three virtual sources feed a common DC bus,
• the Arduino reads representative voltage/current sensors for each source, decides which source should be prioritised, and controls simple switch-mode elements (relays or MOSFETs available in SimulIDE) accordingly,
• live plots inside SimulIDE clearly illustrate how the sources share the load as conditions change.

Please stay within the native component library of SimulIDE; no external SPICE or additional microcontrollers. Once the model runs, I also need a concise walkthrough—screenshots plus comments in the code—so others can reproduce the experiment and tweak parameters easily.

Deliverables: the .simu file, the .ino file, and a short PDF or Markdown guide explaining setup, wiring logic and expected classroom talking points.
