Research attention on decentralized autonomous energy systems has increased exponentially in the past three decades, as demonstrated by the absolute number of publications and the share of these studies in the corpus of energy system modelling literature. This paper shows the status quo and future modelling needs for research on local autonomous energy systems. A total of 359 studies are roughly investigated, of which a subset of 123 in detail. The studies are assessed with respect to the characteristics of their methodology and applications, in order to derive common trends and insights. Most case studies apply to middle-income countries and only focus on the supply of electricity in the residential sector. Furthermore, many of the studies are comparable regarding objectives and applied methods. Local energy autonomy is associated with high costs, leading to levelized costs of electricity of 0.41 $/kWh on average. By analysing the studies, many improvements for future studies could be identified: the studies lack an analysis of the impact of autonomous energy systems on surrounding energy systems. In addition, the robust design of autonomous energy systems requires higher time resolutions and extreme conditions. Future research should also develop methodologies to consider local stakeholders and their preferences for energy systems.

“…Furthermore, the household electricity prices are lower than the LCOEs for the autonomous system for almost every study. The only exceptions include case studies in countries with above-average electricity prices (Australia [41], Croatia [52] and Germany [79,95]), or the two studies with the lowest LCOEs [110,113] in Figure 2.…”

“…Thus, the features of a sustainable energy system must at least be available (such as; efforts to reduce GHG emissions, economic viability and maximum utilization of resources). Specifically, the discussion of the polygeneration system has been largely discussed [14,15,99]. The design of the energy system must initially assess the availability of resources very carefully, in this case, renewable energy because of its intermittent and dilute nature.…”

Better systems can be produced from various utility outputs that are integrated to make choices. The emergence of polygeneration after triggers and cogeneration can be used as sustainable solutions, making it possible to utilize resources optimally, efficiently and environmentally friendly. Polygeneration can be conceptualized with several possibilities because, theoretically, the working system has been well received as contained in some literature. Various scientific works have reported that the input and output vary greatly. The results of experimental analyses and prototypes developed have also been widely investigated and reported. Optimization tools that are based on the function of each objective are also used as a step to develop polygeneration effectively and efficiently. Polygeneration assessment has multidimensional criteria and their definitions can be applied based on cases with specific objectives. The main objective of this article is to comprehensively review the various literature available to investigate the status of polygeneration for renewable and sustainable energy solutions in the future. Various possible logical and predictable future works on polygeneration are also discussed at the end of this article.

Some remote and rurar areas in Indonesia have low electrification levels and this poses a undermines their economic development potential. In response to the aforementioned challenges, it is necessary to develop an integrated energy system that produces multi-utilities (polygeneration) in producing energy to meet local needs. The aim of this work is to investigate the technical and economic analysis on a polygeneration system of a gas-fired power plant to produce electricity and heating, and to be integrated with an LNG regasification system for the utilization of cold energy as well. This polygeneration system is located in Manokwari District, West Papua. The polygeneration system was simulated using Unisim Design R390.1 to evaluate the technical performances and its economic analysis was done by using cash flow method with several business schemes, financial and fiscal incentives. The results showed that technically the polygeneration system is able to increase the efficiency of power generation system of a stand-alone power plant, from 32.9% to 59.7%. Economically, the polygeneration system can reduce the electricity tariff of a stand-alone power system from 19.32 US cents/kWh to 12.31 USD cents /kWh.
