Analysis of a Hybrid Nuclear Renewable Energy Resource in a Distributed Energy System for a Rural Area in Nigeria

Ronke M. Ayo-Imoru, Ahmed Ali, Pitshou N. Bokoro · 2022 · Energies

Summary. This paper analyzes hybrid energy systems combining nuclear microreactors with renewable sources for rural Nigeria. Using simulation software, the authors tested distributed energy configurations and found that a photovoltaic-nuclear-battery system performed best, followed by photovoltaic-nuclear-wind-battery systems. Nuclear microreactors address renewable energy's intermittency problems while providing stable, clean electricity in decentralized rural settings.
