Integrated Renewable Energy System Based on IREOM Model and Spatial–Temporal Series for Isolated Rural Areas in the Region of Valparaiso, Chile

Summary. This study proposes a smart integrated renewable energy system for isolated rural areas in Valparaiso, Chile, using locally available resources like solar, wind, biomass, and biogas. The researchers modified an optimization model to identify which areas could benefit from this approach and designed systems that minimize energy generation costs. Results show that renewable systems cost roughly three times less than extending the electricity grid to remote locations.
