Jamil Ahmed, Khanji Harijan, Pervez Hameed Shaikh, Amjad Ali Lashari · 2021 · Journal of Electrical and Electronic Engineering

Summary. This study analyzes the technical and economic feasibility of an off-grid hybrid renewable energy system for a rural village in Balochistan, Pakistan. Researchers designed and optimized a system combining wind turbines, solar panels, and battery storage to meet local electricity demand. The optimized configuration delivers 197.74 kWh daily at a cost of $0.137 per kilowatt-hour, proving more cost-effective than grid extension for remote areas with difficult terrain.
