Feasibility study of hybrid energy system for off-grid electrification in rural areas
Summary. A hybrid energy system combining photovoltaic, wind, battery storage, and diesel generation can reliably electrify a remote rural village in eastern Iraq at lower cost than single-source systems. Optimization modeling shows a 6 kW solar array, 35 kW wind turbines, battery storage, and inverter can meet 30 kW daily demand at $0.117/kWh while reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 25 tons CO2 annually.
