Abstract

Renewable energy is energy sources that will not run out naturally. The using of a hybrid generating system can be a solution to increase the using of renewable energy sources in the electricity sector. The purpose of this study is the modeling of hybrid system power plants and determining the most optimal system configuration according to cost calculations. The electrical energy requirement in an agricultural unit is the electricity requirement in the compost house and the energy to run pumps for irrigation on agricultural land that the average electricity consumption per hour is 165.44 kWh/d, the average electricity demand is 6.89 kW, and a peak load during usage is 20.46 kW. The average radiation value is 4.71 kWh/m2/day, the level of brightness is at an average value of 0.472 and the average wind speed is 3.30 m/s. Total Net Present Cost (NPC) value is $211,894.30 and a Cost of Energy (CoE) is $0,424 which is the average electricity generation each month by each component consists of solar cells and generators are 21,264 kWh/yr (47.1%) and 23,866 kWh/yr (52.9%), respectively.
