Evaluation of Electrical Generation Systems with Solar Energy and Wind Energy at Phu Laen Kha National Park of Chaiyaphum Province

Abstract

This research was to study the design of the electrical generation with solar energy and wind energy for National Park Protection Unit: PK. 2 (Pan Thong), National Park Protection Unit: PK. 3 (Pa Prong Phan Pi) and Pha Hua Nak Viewpoint of Phu Laen Kha National Park, Chaiyaphum province. The potential of renewable energy and the electrical energy consumption were studied in this research. It was observed that National Park Protection Unit: PK. 2 (Pan Thong) and National Park Protection Unit: PK. 3 (Pa Prong Phan Pi) similarly used daily electrical energy of 28.97 kWh/day and had the maximum power value of 3.55 kW. Pha Hua Nak Viewpoint used the daily electrical energy of 59.52 kWh/day and the maximum power value of 7.60 kW. Also, hybrid system of solar cell and diesel generator systems was selected for operation because this system had the lowest energy price. National Park Protection Unit: PK. 2 and National Park Protection Unit: PK. 3 had the size of the solar cell systems of 5.46 kW, diesel generator system of 8 kW and battery of 33.10 kWh. Pha Hua Nak Viewpoint had the size of the solar cell system of 11.23 kW, diesel generator system of 16 kW and battery of 68.02 kWh.
