Design and optimization of an off-grid integrated renewable energy system for remote rural electrification in India
Summary. Researchers designed and optimized an off-grid renewable energy system combining solar, micro-hydro, and biogas generation with battery storage to electrify twelve villages in Uttarakhand, India. The sodium-sulfur battery configuration proved most cost-effective, delivering energy at 16.77 INR/kWh. Sensitivity analysis showed inflation rates and discount rates significantly impact system costs, while accounting for load and resource uncertainties increased required capacity and storage substantially.
