Hybrid power generation systems are becoming very popular due to the advance in renewable energy technologies. Solar and wind are the most widely used renewable energy sources for generating the electrical power. Their availability usually is shifted in time. Therefore; it may be advantageous to consider both sources as simultaneous option when designing an electricity supply system in an arid sites...
This research seeks to evaluate the economic benefits to be gained by installing a small-scale wind turbine for a customer with a three-phase electrical supply requirement. The evidence for the claims made in this paper is obtained by using actual data obtained from the installed equipment over a three year period. The objective is to accurately appraise the financial investment using real data. There...
Solar and wind are alternative energy resources which are clean, inexhaustible and environmentally friendly. This study aims to conduct an economic analysis of a grid-connected hybrid PV-wind system in Kuala Terengganu, Malaysia. The system configurations comprise of grid-only, PV-grid and PV-wind grid system for a small-scale grid connected house with an annual energy consumption of 8.2125MWh. HOMER...
The objective of this study is to explore the residential and agricultural use of small wind power systems in rural western New York, and to develop a sense of efficacy and efficiency of such systems. The study deals mainly with hybrid systems, that is, systems with wind as the primary source of power along with a variety of backup sources. The study also attempts to identify the technical and economic...
This paper presents an innovative wind/PV/diesel hybrid system implemented in three remote islands in the Republic of Maldives. The design methodology and preliminary results are presented. It is expected that the newly developed and installed system will provide very good opportunities to showcase high penetration of renewable energies using state of the art wind turbines, photovoltaic modules and...
The innovative renewable energy conversion system called ldquoHybrid Offshore-wind and Tidal Turbinerdquo (HOTT) Conversion was proposed. The research includes tidal turbine and offshore-wind turbine, new turbine designs, turbine control of tidal energy and offshore-wind energy absorption, hydrodynamic characteristics, energy conversion, overall design methods, moorings and foundation and system resonance...
