Abstract
Global warming, fuel depletion and diesel price volatility have prompted many countries to develop energy produced from renewable resources. The problem is that many remote areas of Iraq have expanded randomly and the possibility of connecting electricity requires a lot of money and time. This paper proposes techno-economically feasible and optimal sizing for each component of a hybrid system to generate electricity to a health clinic in Zerbattiya, a village located in southeastern Iraq near the Iranian border. The proposed hybrid system is composed of PV, WT, batteries, and converters. Homer software was used to model the system. The average life expectancy of the proposed system is 20 years. Results showed that the respective optimal values of NPV, NWT, Nconv, NBT, COE, NPC, O&M, IC, and the renewable factor are 10; 7; 6; 41; US$0.547/kwh; US$72,878; US$990/yr; US$50,000; and 100%, respectively. Therefore, using the hybrid system is justified on technical, economic, and humanitarian grounds.
