Abstract
In this study, technoeconomic analyses and environmental comparisons of various hybrid systems that will ensure that electricity needs are met independently of the grid of Köyceğiz district of Mugla, which has a population of about 40,000, were made. The unit energy cost of the hybrid energy system consisting of Solar Panel-Wind Turbine and Battery, which is planned to meet the electricity needs of the district with an average daily electricity consumption of 150,000 kWh, has been made net present value calculations. Homer (Hybrid Optimization Model for Electric Renewable) program was used to make these analyses. During the evaluations, various parameters (generator working load, wind turbine tower height, battery operating intervals, etc.) were changed for the system to be installed and sensitivity analyses were made. As a result of the study, the unit energy cost of the system, which can be installed independently of the grid, was calculated as $0.182/kWh. Environmentally renewable and sustainable is the positive side of these systems. In addition, it has been observed that the cost decreases when parameters such as fuel cost, discount and inflation rates change.
Highlights
With the developing technology and industrialization, the use and need of energy in the world is increasing day by day
Using meteorological data of the region, wind turbine height was taken as 50m, diesel generator fuel price was $1.2, commissioning load was taken as 25%
This study aims to reveal the techno-economic potential of a commercial hybrid energy system that will meet the electricity needs of the Muğla province Köyceğiz district with a population of approximately 40,000
Summary
With the developing technology and industrialization, the use and need of energy in the world is increasing day by day. Countries primarily use fossil fuels to meet these needs. Usage rates of fossil fuels have been at the highest level due to the economic feasibility of the past years and the development and widespread use of production systems. The oil crisis that broke out towards the end of the 20th century has reduced the trust in fossil fuels and the life expectancy for the future has become a big problem. The negative impact of fossil fuels on the environment and causing global warming has significantly increased the demand and use of renewable energy. The fact that there is no issue such as the depletion of renewable energy sources and the homogeneous distribution of many renewable energy sources in the world has made renewable energy popular
