The hybrid power generation system uses renewable resources to avoid the issues of using traditional energy systems. This study investigates an integrated hybrid energy system with storage for the electrification of rural Indian areas. Several configurations are analyzed for techno-economic viability, and the optimal one is chosen.
READ MORELarge rural areas in some regions of the world are still grappling with the challenge of electrification. The optimal solution is to provide reliable energy without adding more fossil fuel plants by using distributed renewable generation. Microgrids are part of that solution; they are small networks of electricity users, with a local generator that is attached to a
