Perspective and Optimization of Hybrid Energy Plants: A Focus on Tunisia

Öz

In this work, potentials, state-of-the-art and development of hybrid wind-solar plants in the eastern-North Africa zone are studied. Since the use of the renewable energy sources requires an accurate evaluation and planning, an optimization procedure has been adopted. The protocol exploits data -such as solar radiation and cumulative mean wind speed- which are available for each node of the grid which represents the Tunisian territory. The aim of this paper is to identify several optimal locations which can host hybrid systems based on solar and wind technologies.
