Design of 24 Hour Energy Generation from Renewable Energy

A hybrid energy system as describe in paper, this research will provide an advantages over the conditional system. Hybrid energy systems are a mechanism that explores multiple sources of energy connected together to achieve synchronised power generation. Many research works have confirmed that Hybrid Energy System (HES) in off-grid applications are economically workable, mainly in island and remote area. This work focuses on the design and construction of a hybrid system from three renewable energy sources within Malaysia, namely wind, rain and solar. Malaysia is located within a tropical climate which has huge potential for harvesting renewable energy. In order to do the experimental work, Laboratory D2.1 which is located in the Faculty of Engineering was selected. The main objective of this study is to design and optimise a hybrid renewable energy system by analysing the power generation ability with load demand characteristics. Another objective of this study is to model and simulate the system to evaluate the performance of the system and also to identify the barriers that can be addressed.
