Optimal design and techno‐economic analysis of a hybrid grid‐independent renewable energy system for a rural community

Pujari Harish Kumar, R. Mageshvaran · 2021 · International Transactions on Electrical Energy Systems

Summary. This paper designs and analyzes hybrid renewable energy systems for rural electrification in India. Using HOMER software, researchers evaluated six configurations for a village in Andhra Pradesh and identified an optimal system combining solar panels, diesel generators, batteries, and converters. This system delivers reliable power at low cost while reducing carbon emissions by 76% and achieving 97% renewable energy fraction, making it suitable for rural electrification projects.
