Abstract
Background:
Renewable energy systems are the most promising long-term sustainable
energylong-term sustainable energy, with numerous advantages. Renewable energy systems that
combine traditional and renewable resources are now cost-effective and have a low carbon impact.
These systems are becoming more popular as a feasible option for rural areas, particularly
when it comes to grid connectivity.
Objective:
This study discusses the ideal design and size for separated PV batteries and dieselbased
renewable energy systems. South Sinai, Egypt, was chosen as the testing location for unusual
environmental conditions, system specs, and daily energy requirement statistics to analyze
the total energy required for a specific site. The load under investigation is a school complex in
one of the governorate's cities.
Method:
The complete system is simulated and tested using the MATLAB/Simulink program.
Results:
In this study the amount of energy required by the load is determined. The load power is
compared with the system output power to justify the reliability of the system. The system output
voltage is shown which is sinusoidal wave. The management control system between PV, diesel
and battery is shown
Conclusion:
The results show that the system is reliable; the control strategies always indicate the
load requirement and minimize the diesel run time.
