Use of a Hybrid Wind—Solar—Diesel—Battery Energy System to Power Buildings in Remote Areas: A Case Study

The emerging environmental consequences of overdependence on fossil fuels have pushed many countries to invest in clean and renewable sources power. Countries like Iran where these can be found abundance take advantage this potential reduce their dependence fuels. This study investigated the feasibility standalone use a hybrid energy system (HRES) power buildings Bostegan village Hormozgan province Iran. Technical, economic, assessments were performed with help Hybrid Optimization Multiple Energy Resources (HOMER) software, optimal configuration for components was determined accordingly. results showed that simultaneous wind solar systems converter backup comprised diesel generator batteries will most economic option, offering electricity at cost 1.058 USD/kWh fraction 64%. After selecting using step-wise weight assessment ratio analysis (SWARA) weighted aggregated sum product (WASPAS) techniques, sensitivity 27 parameter settings determine effect fuel price fluctuations uncertainty potentials results. worst-case scenario, reach as high 1.343 $/kWh. In end, an alternative scenario generated is used hydrogen production, which output produce 643.63 ton-H2/year.
