Abstract
Abstract Remote electrification enhances the quality of life quality of people in remote areas, with no access to electricity through distributed coverage of electricity. Due to the irregular and unbalanced fuel cost and impracticable expansion of the grid, hybrid integrated renewable energy sources become dependable substitute for remote electrification. The necessity of uninterrupted power dispatch is a prime factor for primary health centres, located in tribal and remote areas. This article proposes an integrated primary analysis like financial, production, quantity and environmental, applied to an optimum sizing of a hybrid standalone renewable energy source, which might be carried out in eight primary health centres, situated in the Gudalur Zone in Nilgiris District, Tamil Nadu, India. Four different criteria were inspected in this study, as standard loading, boost up loading, step down loading and complete renewable loading. In addition, every criterion was assessed with four kinds of PV tracking arrangements. HOMER Pro Micro-grid Analysis Tool was used, to analyze the different primary parameters of this study. The foremost financial parameters like COE (Cost of Energy) and NPC (Net Present Cost), could range from 0.102 to 0.118 $ per kWh and from 0.4047 to 0.5708 Million $ respectively.
