Selection of Optimal Configuration for Autonomous Solar-Wind Hybrid System for Household Consumption

摘要

The report presents techno-economic analysis and optimal sizing of an autonomous hybrid solar-wind energy system for powering a single-family residential building in a village in the region of Yambol, Bulgaria. In order to determine the configuration of the system, a study of the potential of wind and solar energy was made at the selected place for a period of one year. Data on average electricity consumption in residential buildings in the region were also collected. The optimum system configuration was determined to meet the load requirement at a minimum levelized cost of energy (LCOE) and at a minimum excess energy produced.
