초록

A hybrid system combining renewable technologies with diesel generators is a promising solution for rural electrification. Myanmar has many renewable energy resources, and many regions that cannot be supplied with electricity from the main grid. Therefore, in this study, we select a village in Myanmar, which is located far away from the substation, and evaluate the economic feasibility of a hybrid system for the village considering the specific local conditions and resource availability. We consider a hybrid system composed of a photovoltaic source, diesel generator, battery energy storage system, and converter. The load profiles of the household data from the village, and the solar radiation profiles are determined. The advantages of the hybrid system, in terms of cost, reliability, and environmental effects are analyzed through simulations using commercial software. The simulation results show that, for the selected village in Myanmar, a hybrid system with battery energy storage can reduce the cost and greenhouse gas emissions while maintaining reliability. We also obtain an optimized design in terms of the component size for the selected hybrid system with battery energy storage.
