Design a Hybrid Mini-grid Power System for Off-grid Areas of Bangladesh

Abstract

As a developing country, renewable energy is now the focus of attention. Wind energy in particular, because it offers a large potential energy source in the electricity sector. Renewable energy generation system coupled with diesel engines can be a reliable and optimized source of energy for decentralized and remote areas, where grid connection is virtually impossible. The increasing demand for electricity has to be addressed in Bangladesh. Reduce costs of renewable energy technology and improved efficiency and reliability. HOMER software uses techno-economic analysis of optimum off-grid system modelling. Energy resources are considered, primarily wind power alongside solar energy and diesel fuel. In this research, a cost-effective mini-grid power station modelling of WindSolar-Diesel hybrid power system in a coastal area is considered. The main focus of this proposed integrated design is to provide a minimum cost of energy (COE) with the maximum load demand using renewable energy sources. In today's world, global warming is an alarming issue. So, we see reducing fuel burning and also reducing carbon dioxide emissions. Here, HOMER is used to examine the most cost-effective configurations among a set of (104)KWh / day primary load, (18.67 )KW peak load electricity requirement system.
