| Abstract | ||||
| This paper aims to introduce an effective design of a stand-alone hybrid power system (HPS). The designed system consists of a photovoltaic (PV) array, battery bank and diesel generator. The presented technique proceeds in practical and plausible steps to estimate the rated powers of each component of the HPS. It will be determinant based on the expected loads, characteristics of the used PV module and the meteorological data of the region of installation. Furthermore, it can be applied to design a hybrid power system for electrification of any individual load either in rural or urban areas which are near to the main grid. Thereupon, it is applied on a case study (Constructing of New Talkha Bridge in Egypt). Additionally in this paper, various operational configurations are studied, analyzed economically to ascertain which of them the optimal and appropriate considering cost, reliable and pollutant emissions are. The results of the study encouraged the use of the hybrid PV system in rural areas in Egypt. | ||||
