Empowering Rural Communities: Feasibility and Optimization of Hybrid Renewable Energy Systems for Sustainable Electricity Using HOMER Software

Saket Mishra, Krishna Bihari Yadav · 2024

Summary. This case study examines a hybrid solar and wind energy system designed for Khajuri-Motihani village in Bihar, India, using HOMER software to optimize system configuration. The analysis shows that a renewable energy system is technically and economically feasible for this rural community, reducing costs while maximizing renewable generation and cutting carbon emissions. The findings demonstrate that this approach could serve as a replicable model for other rural Indian villages seeking energy independence and sustainability.
