Abstract

Somalia Mogadishu-Turkey Training and Research Hospital is only powered by diesel generator currently. In this paper, the energy demand of this hospital is supplied by determining the optimum hybrid power renewable generating system. Therefore, numerous hybrid renewable power generating systems including the components like diesel generator, wind turbine, photovoltaic (PV) and battery are considered in different configurations. Eventually, they are technically, environmentally and economically analyzed by using the well-known HOMER software. Furthermore, a sensitivity analysis is also performed considering variations in three important parameters, namely average wind speed, current diesel price and also solar radiation. According to the results, the optimal system is the standalone Wind/Diesel/Battery hybrid renewable energy system (HRES) with the configuration of 1,000 kW wind turbine, 350 kW diesel generator, 250 kW power converters and 750 batteries. Additionally, this system has the net present cost of $5,056,700 as well as the cost of energy as $0.191/kWh. Lastly, it is clearly occurred that the Wind/Diesel/Battery HRES is eco-friendlier than other HRESs.

索马里土耳其医院可再生能源选择评估

索马里摩加迪沙-土耳其培训和研究医院目前仅由柴油发电机供电。本文通过确定最优的混合动力可再生发电系统来满足该医院的能源需求。因此，包括柴油发电机、风力涡轮机、光伏(PV)和电池等组件在内的众多混合可再生能源发电系统被考虑在不同的配置中。最后，使用著名的HOMER软件对它们进行技术、环境和经济分析。此外，还考虑了三个重要参数的变化，即平均风速、当前柴油价格和太阳辐射，进行了敏感性分析。根据结果，最优系统是独立的风能/柴油/电池混合可再生能源系统(HRES)，配置1000千瓦的风力涡轮机、350千瓦的柴油发电机、250千瓦的电源转换器和750块电池。此外，该系统目前的净成本为5,056,700美元，能源成本为0.191美元/千瓦时。最后，很明显，风能/柴油/电池HRES比其他HRES更环保。
