摘要:Sizing of wind and photovoltaic generators ensures lower operational costs and therefore, is considered as an important issue. An approach for sizing along with a best management technique for a PV - wind hybrid system with batteries is proposed in this paper, in which the best size for every component of the system could be optimized according to the weather conditions and the load profile. The average hourly values for wind speed and solar radiation for Izmir, Turkey has been used in the design of the systems, al ong with expected load profile. A hybrid power model is also developed for battery operation according to the power balance between generators and loads used in the software, to anticipate performances for the different systems according to the different w eather conditions. The output of the program will display the performance of the system during the year, the total cost of the system, and the best size for the PV - generator, wind generator, and battery capacity. Using proposed procedure, a 1.2 kWp PV - wind hybrid system was designed for Izmir, and simulated and measured results are presented.
