Abstract

In recent time, researchers are aiming to integrate renewable energy with nuclear energy to utilize the energy infrastructure at its best or to meet the local energy demand, especially for the remote places. In this paper, the feasibility analysis of the nuclear-renewable energy system is conducted by HOMER (Hybrid Optimization Models for Energy Resources) software. This paper considers three modes of power supply; only renewable energy, only Nuclear Power Plant (NPP), and integration of both nuclear-renewable energy; to meet the electric demand. The simulation results show that the grid-connected Nuclear-Renewable Micro Hybrid Energy System (N-R MHES) is the most feasible option to meet the sizeable electrical power demand. The paper also sets the analysis guidance and criteria for the three power supply mode depending on the annual load profile of a facility.
