Optimum autonomous wind–power system sizing for remote consumers, using long-term wind speed data

摘要: Abstract The usage of autonomous power-systems is one the most successful ways to treat electrification requirements numerous isolated consumers, not only in Greece but also worldwide. Such an system comprises a micro-wind converter and battery storage device, along with corresponding electronic equipment. Considering high wind potential several regions our country, integrated study carried out, based on long-term wind-potential experimental measurements, order determine optimum configuration stand-alone power system. proposed solution “guarantees” zero load rejections for all 4-year period examined. For this purpose, two separate calculation approximations are developed, presenting almost similar results. Of course, application “WINDREMOTE II” numerical code detailed gives analytical results concerning energy autonomy operational status components. Finally, by introducing preliminary financial aspects, it possible dimensions minimum first-installation cost.
