Economic And Environmental Modeling For Grid-connected Hybrid Photovoltaic-wind Power System In Hot Arid South Algeria

Authors : Bouras Yagoub .

Abstract

In this paper, a study is done on small-scale operations of 1.485 MW per day of hybrid renewable energy system (HRES) as a grid-assisted power generation including solar and wind energy. A comparison is made between a grid-connected with HRES and a standard grid operation focused on environmental and economic impacts. To simulate HRES, we have used climate data from Adrar region (27.59 ° N, 0.11 ° W) of south Algeria as an example of a typical hot arid climate. For this aspect, we have taken an average hour of global solar radiation, temperature and wind speed. In this study, the hybrid optimization model for electric renewable (HOMER) is employed. The optimum results are clearly shown 27.5% reduction in total emissions (CO2, SO2 and Nox). The renewable fraction (RF) of the optimized system is 27%. The simulation results also indicate that of a grid-connected HRES system is achieved considering reduction in the NPC and COE which are only equal to about 80% of energy consumption from standard grid.
