Abstract
This paper presents the methodology and results of the simulation and
optimization of renewables and non-renewables energy system for supply to a
shopping center as an alternative to the electric grid consumption, so that to
determinate the optimal system. The fundamentals equations used to estimate the
operational costs are presented. The software used to simulate and optimize the
purposed system is HOMER Pro®, this software can simulate energy systems
with renewable fractions and optimize those components to obtain the best system
to use. In addition, the renewable systems they have the lowest annual operation
cost and total operation cost in the simulated case study, therefore those systems
should be consider as the better option to take as an alternative to the electrical
grid consumption, but the non-renewable systems could be a great solution if the
problem lies in obtaining an emergency plant, capable of generating large
amounts of energy in a short period of time. Finally, that the renewable electric
generating devices are the better option to use as an alternative to the electric grid
consumption but it is recommended the use of an emergency plant with the final purpose of supply large amounts of energy if the situation requires it and this
emergency plants should be natural gas electric generating devices or diesel
electric generating devices.
