Probabilistic reliability evaluation of off-grid small hybrid solar PV-wind power system for the rural electrification in Nepal
Summary. This paper evaluates the reliability of hybrid solar-wind power systems designed to provide electricity to remote rural areas in Nepal. The authors analyze a real off-grid system using probabilistic methods to calculate key reliability metrics including loss of load expectation and expected energy not served. The findings demonstrate that hybrid systems combining wind turbines as primary generation with solar panels and battery backup can deliver dependable power supply to remote communities at reasonable cost.
