Design And Analysis Of Home Application Hybrid Micro Grid (PV– Wind) Energy System In Hebron-Palestine

Abstract

The Renewable energy becoming popular in the recent decade due to soaring fuel prices and due to technological advancements which reduce the cost of mentioned technology. As well known, the Palestinian energy sector totally depends on the Israeli sector, due to that reason, the cost of electricity is too much high than anywhere else in the world. Because of Solar and Wind sources are the most available once in Palestine they should be used in present project as Hybrid system. The purpose of this project is to design a hybrid system that combines several energy systems (Photovoltaic and wind turbine) together with control system (PLC), so it can supply high reliable electricity rather than individual sources. This project describes the application of PV-wind hybrid with control system in domestic use, where the average consumption of the houses in domestic sector is found around 4045 Kwh/year. Based on the estimated energy consumption the designed PV system should cover the daily consumption, while the designed wind turbine should the cover night consumption. In addition to the excess or shortages of energy should be delivered to the grid or received from the grid in order to fulfill the required consumption mainly in night time and cloudy weather. The control of the energy exchange and estimation should be realized by PLC system. The hybrid system will be studied economically in order to estimate its feasibility and the prospects to be applied in large scale in Hebron – Palestine. Moreover, Unity pro , PV sys and Excel software will be used to analyses and design the hybrid system.
