Abstract |
Solar and wind energy systems are omnipresent, freely available, environmental friendly, and they are considered as promising power generating sources due to their availability and topological advantages for local power generations. Hybrid solarwind energy systems, uses two renewable energy sources, allow improving the system efficiency and power reliability and reduce the energy storage requirements for stand-alone applications. The hybrid solarwind systems are becoming popular in remote area power generation applications due to advancements in renewable energy technologies and substantial rise in prices of petroleum products. This Paper presents simulation, optimization for the stand-alone hybrid solarwind energy systems with battery storage. Simulation and Optimization is done using HOMER (Hybrid Optimization Model for Electrical Renewable) software.Six different locations of Gujarat is selected for study with two different plant size i.e. 5 kWh/day, and 10 kWh/day. HOMER gives optimized rating of equipment except battery and calculation gives cost of energy. |
