Feed-in-Tariff (FiT) mechanisms have been important in boosting renewable energy, by providing a long-term guaranteed subsidy of the kWh-price, thus mitigating investment risks and enhancing the contribution of sustainable electricity. By ongoing PV development, the contribution of solar power increases exponentially. Within this significant potential, it is important for investors, operators, ...

In this work, the evaluation of design and optimization proposed offgrid hybrid microgrid systems for different load dispatch strategies is presented by assessing component sizes, system responses cost analyses system. This study optimizes sizing Barishal Chattogram (two popular divisions in Bangladesh) consisting wind turbine, storage unit, solar PV, diesel generator a profile 27.31 kW five te...

The power requirements of grids have risen as artificial intelligence and electric vehicle technologies been used. Thus, the installation distributed generators (DGs) has become an essential factor to streamline grids. objective this study is optimize capacity location DGs. For purpose, function was defined, which takes into account fault current levelized cost energy, a modified particle swarm...

An evaluation was carried out to investigate the feasibility of utilizing a molten salt as the heat transfer fluid (HTF) and for thermal storage in a parabolic trough solar field to improve system performance and to reduce the levelized electricity cost. The operating SEGS1 plants currently use a high temperature synthetic oil consisting of a eutectic mixture of biphenyl/diphenyl oxide. The sco...

Harvesting the full spectrum of sunlight using a hybrid approach offers the potential for higher efficiencies, lower power production costs, and increased power grid compatibility than any single technology by itself. In this article, the base technologies for converting sunlight into electricity, including photovoltaics and solar thermal approaches are discussed. Then feasible strategies for c...
