Optimization of Hybrid Renewable Energy in Sarawak Remote Rural Area Using HOMER Software
Summary. This paper analyzes five hybrid renewable energy systems for three remote rural areas in Sarawak, Malaysia using HOMER optimization software. The researchers compared combinations of solar, hydro, wind, and biomass generators across different locations. Hybrid hydro systems with battery storage proved cheapest and most technically effective. Hybrid renewable systems outperformed standalone diesel generators in cost-effectiveness and carbon emission reduction, offering viable solutions for rural electrification.
