TLDR
A sizing approach of stand-alone Photovoltaic-Wind systems is proposed which is evaluated by the development of a computer application based essentially on Loss of Power Supply Probability (LPSP) algorithm to provide an optimal technical-economic configuration.
Abstract
Abstract The exhaustion and all the drawbacks of fossil fuels are the main elements that led to the development and use of new alternativesfor power generation based on renewable energy,amongthem: photovoltaic energy systems, windenergy systems and their combination in a hybrid photovoltaic-wind system. In this paper we proposed a sizing approach of stand-alone Photovoltaic-Wind systems which is evaluated by the development of a computer applicationbased essentially on Loss of Power Supply Probability (LPSP) algorithmto provide an optimal technical-economic configuration. An example of a PV-Wind plant sizing is presented and discussed.
