Feasibility and Sensitivity Analysis of a Hybrid Photovoltaic/Wind/Biogas/Fuel-Cell/Diesel/Battery System for Off-Grid Rural Electrification Using homer

Khalid Anwar, Sandip Deshmukh, Saad Mustafa Rizvi · 2020 · Journal of Energy Resources Technology

Summary. Researchers designed and analyzed a hybrid renewable energy system combining photovoltaic, wind, biogas, fuel cells, diesel, and battery storage for remote rural electrification. Using HOMER software, they tested seven scenarios and found that photovoltaic, wind, and biogas together delivered the lowest energy cost at $0.207/kWh, dropping to $0.12/kWh with policy support and carbon cost accounting. Sensitivity analysis showed system costs most respond to changes in energy demand and least to wind speed variations.
