Abstract
Traditional electrical grids rely heavily on Hydrocarbons. The latter turn out to be a significant cause of environmental damage, as well as being rapidly depleted. Remote regions and settlements cannot benefit from this kind of electric energy as they are disconnected from the electrical network. Hybrid renewable energy systems (HRES) proved as being a great option in such cases. The objective of this article is to construct and optimize an autonomous hybrid renewable power plant to meet the demand for electricity for an isolated drilling location in Adrar region in the south of Algeria. To address the issue of intermittent power from wind and solar sources, a hydrogen-based arrangement is included in the already existing hybrid renewable energy system. The system modeling and running are carried out using HOMER package to identify the best cost-effective HRES arrangements.
