Abstract

A hybrid (wind-Diesel) energy conversion system, to meet the load requirements of a hundred typical two bedroom residential buildings at Daharan, Saudi Arabia, was presented. The hybrid system consists of different combinations of 150 kw commercial wind machines, supplemented with battery storage and diesel backup. It was evaluated that in a hybrid system with seven 150 kw wind energy conversion system (WECS), the diesel back system needs to suffice the system by providing 21.65 of the load demand. The monthly average daily energy generation from different sizes of wind machines was also studied to identify the optimum wind machine size for the energy production point of view.
