| Summary: | In this project, comprehensive information about various types of renewable energy is provided. Also, solar and wind energy is analyzed specifically. For this project a residential area in the town of Astara, Iran has been selected. Based on information provided by TAVANIR Company and electricity distribution companies in the region of Astara, power consumption has been calculated to be kwh / day20. Independent system for providing power in the region is diesel generators, wind power and photovoltaic power. HOMER software has been used in this project which is based on the design of power supply system according to lowest cost. For this purpose the environmental characteristics of the area including the amount of solar energy received on account of annual wind speed in meters per second have been considered. This application is based on optimization. To achieve this objective consumer information, including load profile in terms of time, number, type and price of diesel generators, number, type and price of wind energy turbines, number, type and price of photovoltaic cells are keyed in to the application and the software, based on mathematical optimization models, selectes the best options (such as optimization algorithms and PSO algorithm in MATLAB) as output. |
