Sizing, modelling and simulation for Hybrid Central PV/wind turbine/diesel generator for feeding rural village in South Algeria

Abstract

In this study, a hybrid system has been modulate and simulated, this system is composed with three generators, two on renewable energy (solar and wind power) and one on combustible energy (diesel generator). This central distributes energy to a small village in southwest of Algeria named “Timiaouine”, this central has been sized using mathematic parameter and repartition of consumption for 24 hours in both seasons; winter and summer. The simulation has been done using Matlab/Simulink. Results show that hybrid central produces energy from renewable resources more than fossil resource (diesel) and the whole consumption of the village has been covered.
