Abstract |
This paper relates to a study on the economic of electrical storage device for supplying power in sunless days, in the stand alone PV/Wind hybrid system, which it is applied to separate houses. In a photovoltaic/wind hybrid power system used in a separate house, when only the battery is used in sunless days, the capacity of the battery is become larger. For example, as in recent days, if cloudy days are frequent due to anomaly climate, it is difficult to supply power stably by only the battery based upon pre-estimated sunless days. Accordingly, in order to supply stably power of new renewable energy such as solar to any separate houses, it is preferable to reduce the capacity of battery by decreasing the number of sunless days when estimating the capacity of battery and to drive the small generator for compensation of the power shortage. |
