Summary. Researchers designed and analyzed off-grid hybrid renewable energy systems for a rural Iranian village lacking grid electricity. Using HOMER software, they evaluated combinations of solar, wind, diesel generators, and batteries to meet daily energy demands of 22 kWh. Sensitivity analysis tested how variations in solar radiation, light reflection, and wind speed affected system performance. Four hybrid configurations emerged as viable options, with solar-wind-generator-battery systems offering cost-effective solutions for remote areas.
