Optimization of Sustainable Solar-Diesel Hybrid System for Domestic Electrification in Urban Area

Solar energy systems are freely available, environmental friendly, and they are considered as positive power generating sources due to their availability and topological advantages. Solar-diesel hybrid systems use renewable energy sources. Solar diesel hybrid system or stand alone plants are pollution free silent running and long life system for power generation and due to this improving the system efficiency and reliability and reduce the consumption of fossil fuels. The hybrid solar-diesel systems are becoming popular in remote area for power generation due to unavailability of grid supply and substantial rise in prices of petroleum products. This paper is to review the current state of the simulation, optimization for the stand-alone solar-diesel hybrid systems with battery storage. It is found that hybrid system apply in urban areas to reduce the consumption of grid supply or permanently disconnect it and totally depend on hybrid system. The main variables in this analysis are A.C. Primary Load Calculation, Global Solar Resources, Output of solar energy, Excess Electricity and State of battery charge.. The study presented is to promote the domestic use of Solar-diesel engine with battery bank in this region of Bhopal, India (Longitude 77ο.42’and Latitude 23ο.25’).The research and development effort in this area is still needed for improving the systems ’ performance, establishing techniques for accurately predicting their output and reliabilit
