Integration and optimisation of high-penetration Hybrid Renewable Energy Systems for fulfilling electrical and thermal demand for off-grid communities (2021)
Journal Article
Kahwash, F., Maheri, A., & Mahkamov, K. (2021). Integration and optimisation of high-penetration Hybrid Renewable Energy Systems for fulfilling electrical and thermal demand for off-grid communities. Energy Conversion and Management, 236, Article 114035.

The recent steep decline in the cost of PV panels and wind turbines provides an opportunity to utilise Hybrid Renewable Energy Systems (HRES) to fulfil thermal loads as well as the electrical demand. Two coupled system architectures are proposed and...
