Abstract
Recently, a special attention has been attributed to the renewable energy in Egypt. Optimal sizing of small renewable energy system has a very important role in the use of renewable energy effectively and economically. Particle swarm optimisation (PSO) is a popular stochastic optimisation method that has found in wide applications. Conventional PSO suffers from high computational complexity and slow convergence speed. This study presents a modified PSO (MPSO) technique to optimise the capacity sizes of different components of hybrid PV/wind/battery power generation system for supplying communication and information technology centre in Mansoura University-Egypt. A feasibility study for two options is investigated; stand-alone system composed of PV/wind/battery combination and a grid connected PV/wind system. The proposed MPSO technique proves faster convergence speed and shorter computational time as compared with conventional techniques.
