Abstract

The use of fossil fuels to supply human energy needs is increasing day by day, which contributes to environmental pollution. In addition, they have a limited supply and are not continuously being made, or they are made very slowly. Thus, to reduce human dependence on this type of energy, the use of renewable energy sources is increasing, which has problems because of the high cost of investment and the stochastic nature. In this study, a sensitivity analysis of renewables was conducted to evaluate the impact of these resources on the costs of hybrid power plants based on renewable energies. In this regard, the amount of wind and intensity of sunlight was studied in the Kermanshah region. Significant results can be attributed to a reduction in the rate of return of capital to 9.22 years for the radiation intensity of 4.5Kwh / m2 / d. Then, by Sensitivity analysis to wind intensity, the Optimal wind turbine speed was 4.99 m/s, for COE 0.93($/Kwh).

Abstract

Owing to global population growth, more fossil fuels are being used to meet the energy demand, which has led to increases in environmental pollution. Therefore, alternative sources such as renewable energy can be employed to meet some of the needs. Renewable energy has been criticized for its related problems such as downtime and high investment costs. In this study, a system was proposed to address these two problems by integrating wind and hydropower turbines, in Khalkhal, Ardabil, Iran as a case study. To appraise the system, an economic model was generalized, and an Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) method aiming to reduce investment costs was, implemented. The results show that to cover 100% of the required energy demand with a hybrid system of wind and hydropower turbines, the total cost of this system will be $ 202138. Also, the Cost of Energy (COE) per unit of generated power with the hydropower system, wind, and battery storage is gauged at 0.261 $/kWh. For the case study, to supply the required energy demand, 10 wind turbines and 23 kVA batteries, as well as a 14.6 kW hydropower turbine are required.
