Abstract


The rapid increase in global energy consumption and rising energy generation costs increased the necessity of renewable energy sources (RES) deployment. Integrating RES; e.g. solar and wind, helps overcoming the negative aspect of their intermittent characteristic. Demand-side management (DSM) strategies have a significant role in declining hybrid energy system (HES) over sizing, total cost of energy (COE) and in the same time increase the load factor (LF).

The main objective of this paper is to design an optimal HES power supply from technical, environmental and economic point of views. The system is proposed to cover the required energy for the National Research Centre (NRC) farm in Noubarya, Egypt. The HES is simulated and optimized using the Hybrid Optimization System for Electric Renewable (HOMER).Then DSM is implemented to increase the utilization of the generated energy from RES, enhance the system performance by shifting loads at low power generation and shaving the high peak of load profile. The results of comparison between the base case and DSM case are obtained according to economical, technical and environmental parameters. Finally, a sensitivity study had been performed to determine the gain of DSM by varying renewable contributions and the scaled annual energy demand. The results showed that the case considering DSM strategy gave better outcome than the base case. The significant reduction is obtained in NPC, COE and CO2 emissions by 13.5%, 15.4% and 20% respectively.
