Techno-Economic Analysis of a PV-wind-battery for a Remote Community in Haiti
2020
Abstract This research proposes, through HOMER, to evaluate the technical and economic feasibility of a hybrid energy system, taking advantage of solar and wind resources in a remote community in Haiti. Several configurations were analyzed, the most viable has a net present cost (NPC) of US$ 389,647 and US$ 0.497/kWh of energy cost (COE). It could produce 82,124 kWh/year and 0% of unmet annual load. This configuration still has 9.6% excess electricity, which is important for a possible increase in load. A sensitivity analysis was performed, which shows the performance and technical feasibility of the system for future load increase.
