Technical FAQs 4

Can off-grid electricity be used as a substitute for diesel generator power?

Off-grid electricity can be utilized as a substitute for diesel generator power in rural electrification projects provided efficient, dependable, and reasonably priced renewable energy supplies are available.

What is the difference between a solar PV and a diesel generator?

The solar PV and wind system are combined to provide renewable energy, while the diesel generator serves as an auxiliary unit to fulfill the electric demand during unforeseen fluctuation of sunshine and wind speed.

What type of generator should be used for a solar power plant?

Based on the HOMER modeling, the best optimum approach for this location is a hybrid PV/WT/diesel generator/battery configuration, with 33.3 kW of solar, a 7 kW wind generator, a 13 kW diesel generator, 89 batteries, and a 11.3 kW power converter with a COE of 0.345 $/kW and an NPC of $178,815 as shown in Table 10.

Why do off-grid systems lack a main grid?

In off-grid systems lacking the support of a main grid, the intermittency and uncertainty of renewable energy sources such as wind and photovoltaic (PV) power pose serious challenges to supply stability . Ref.
