The main objective of the this study is to determine the optimum size of systems able to fulfill the requirements of remote sites located in Hajer Bani Hameed in the north of Oman, Masirah Island and Mothorah area in the south of Oman. The methodology applied provides a useful and simple approach for sizing and analyzing the hybrid systems using HOMER. The aim is to identify a configuration among...
In this paper a hybrid stand alone energy system for telecom applications in minor islands is presented. Simulation models have been developed to verify the system performance under different scenarios using practical load profile and meteorological data for the island of Ventotene in Italy. Simulation results are given and discussed for both winter and summer scenarios. The results show that the...
This paper analyses the economic viability of a power production hybrid system (photovoltaic-wind-fuel) for domestic supply in isolated areas. A correctly designed photovoltaic-wind-diesel hybrid system enlarges considerably both the diesel generator lifecycle as well as the batteries lifecycle, when referring to the most common used technology (off-grid generator systems). Both benefits need to be...
This paper describes a methodology to design a hybrid renewable energy system over a certain planning horizon. Traditionally a system plan was developed to achieve a minimum cost objective (MCO) while satisfying the energy demand, reliability, stability and battery constraints. The minimum emissions objective (MEO) is now an important target to achieve subject to the above mentioned constraints. Each...
