Abstract: The success of renewable powered electric vehicle
charging station in isolated areas depends highly on the availability
and sustainability of renewable resources all year round at a selected
location. The main focus of this paper is to discuss the possible
charging strategies that could be implemented to find the best
possible configuration of an electric Tuk-Tuk charging station at a
given location within South Africa. The charging station is designed,
modeled and simulated to evaluate its performances. The technoeconomic
analysis of different feasible supply configurations of the
charging station using renewable energies is simulated using
HOMER software and the results compared in order to select the best
possible charging strategies in terms of cost of energy consumed.
Abstract: In this work, an attempt is made to design an optimal
wind/pv/diesel hybrid power system for a village of Ain Merane,
Chlef, Algeria, where the wind speed and solar radiation
measurements were made. The aim of this paper is the optimization
of a hybrid wind/solar/diesel system applied in term of technical and
economic feasibility by simulation using HOMER. A comparison
was made between the performance of wind/pv/diesel system and the
classic connecting system.
