Abstract
Energy plays an important role in the development of a country. Developing countries tend to lean towards the use of domestic renewable energy sources to reduce their dependency on foreign energy. However, when looking at the world as a whole, the share of fossil fuels in energy production is at high levels. Due to the rapid depletion of fossil fuels and their increasing costs, as well as the environmental damage they cause, electricity generation from cheaper and cleaner renewable energy sources is being targeted in the area where work will be done. Hybrid energy systems are used in conjunction with backup Unitss due to the variable nature of renewable energy sources such as wind and solar. In this study, a hybrid energy system with solar-wind-diesel generator-battery components was designed through HOMERPro software to meet the electricity demand of the closed prison in Burhaniye district of Balikesir. Simulations were carried out by applying 5 different battery scenarios in the hybrid energy system, and the optimum result was obtained. As a result, the effect of the batteries used on the system was examined, and the vanadium redox battery system with a high renewable energy ratio and the lowest Units energy cost was determined to be the most optimum.
