An off-grid hybrid PV/diesel model as a planning and design tool, incorporating dynamic and ANN modelling techniques

Cost‐effective sizing of an AC mini‐grid hybrid power system for a remote area in South Australia

“…A survey of research conducted on a stand-alone hybrid power system with RE supply in Australia reveals the inadvertent of real case studies [12][13][14][15][16]. An off-grid hybrid photovoltaic/diesel power system sizing was proposed for a remote community in the North Australia [15]. The artificial neural network was utilised to model the system for more accuracy; however, the absence of diversity in renewable sources and neglecting energy storage for the proposed system were the main deficiencies.…”

AC‐coupledhybrid power system optimisation for an Australian remote community

“…An off-grid PV/diesel power system sizing was proposed for a remote community in the North Australia. 8 In another attempt, a feasibility analysis for a large-scale stand-alone power supply tourist accommodation was proposed for a subtropical coastal location in Queensland, Australia. 9 Optimal sizing of PV water pumping system for remote areas was axamined by Muhsen et al, 10 and Bakelli et al 11 Feasibility of small-scale off-grid power system including WT/PV/Hydro resources was examined for rural electrification in Ethiopia by Bekele and Tadesse.…”

Review of distributed generation (DG) system planning and optimisation techniques: Comparison of numerical and mathematical modelling methods

“…In particular, Tsuanyo et al [128] verified the feasibility of hybrid solar PV/ diesel engine DG system for sustainable Sub-Saharan African rural area electrification without battery recycling problem. Similarly, Yap and Karri [139] optimised the design of an off-grid solar PV/ diesel engine DG system for small to medium-sized rural communities wherein energy storage installation would not be economical.…”
