Summary. Researchers designed and tested a hybrid renewable energy system combining photovoltaic panels and biogas from animal manure to electrify rural communities. Simulations and 30-day experiments showed the system produced 61.06 kWh daily, exceeding the 46.9 kWh maximum demand. The photovoltaic component achieved 84.3% performance ratio with 1556.5 kWh annual specific production. The biogas digester produced methane-rich gas suitable for energy generation. The hybrid system recovers its investment in 4.47 years and costs $0.0186 per kilowatt-hour while mitigating 20.45 tons of CO2 annually.
