Cost Effective Hybrid Energy System Employing Solar-Wind-Biomass Resources for Rural Electrification

Abstract

A hybrid renewable energy system combining the generation of power through solar, wind and biomass systems has been installed to meet the demand of the particular load centre. The selected site has an adequate solar insolation, wind velocity and biomass fuel availability. The technical feasibility of photo voltaic (PV) integrated with wind and biomass systems for the required demand has been evaluated.  For all the load demands, the life cycle cost (LCC) and life-cycle unit cost (LUC) for solar-biomass; wind-biomass and PV-wind-biomass hybrid system are always lower than that of stand alone system. The PV-wind-biomass hybrid system is techno-economically feasible option for rural electrification. The effects of variation for insolation, wind velocity and biomass fuel on energy generation of the hybrid system have also been investigated.
