Summary. Researchers designed an off-grid hybrid renewable energy system combining solar, wind, and battery storage to power an engineering department at a Nigerian university. Using HOMER Pro software and local climate and energy data, they compared four hybrid configurations. The solar-wind-battery system proved most cost-effective and environmentally friendly, with the lowest total project cost, energy cost, and operating expenses, making it viable for rural electrification.
