Techno-Economic Modeling and Analysis of Off-Grid Microgrids for Rural Electrification in China

Yingqi Liang, Can Berk Saner, Jialun Zhong, Yuxiao Wang, Yilin Liu, Zhouwei Zhong · 2023

Summary. This paper develops a techno-economic model for off-grid microgrids using renewable energy to electrify remote rural areas in China. The authors model microgrid system structures, generation units, economic costs, and rural electricity consumption patterns including household and agricultural use. They apply the model to three Chinese villages, using Markov chain Monte Carlo methods to simulate renewable energy output, and recommend suitable generation technologies and capacities based on village characteristics and local policies.
