Analysis of Hybrid Solar/Wind/Diesel Renewable Energy System for off-grid Rural Electrification

2016 · International Journal of Renewable Energy Research

Summary. This paper designs a hybrid solar, wind, and diesel power system for an off-grid rural parish on Ecuador's coast. Using HOMER software and local meteorological data, the authors analyze system feasibility and components under two diesel pricing scenarios—subsidized and non-subsidized. The work addresses rural electrification gaps by demonstrating how renewable hybrid systems can meet energy demand in underserved areas.
