6 Why the Hybrid System should be considered to implement? - There are people in remote area live without electricity Source: Southeast Asia Energy Outlook 2013, IEA

7 Simple Stand-alone alone Hybrid Mini-Grid System One Inverter, One Diesel Generator From 5 kw to 300 kw

8 Stand-Alone PV system Design Concept using DC Coupling : PV energy goes into system at DC Bus

9 Stand-Alone PV system Design Concept using AC Coupling : PV energy goes into system at AC Bus Grid Connect Inverter AC Bus Bi-Directional Inverter AC Load

10 AC Coupling VS DC Coupling Day time system efficiency when PV supply Load Efficiency from PV to supply load = 96% Efficiency from PV to supply load = 93.1% AC coupling Stand Alone PV-WT Hybrid System DC coupling Stand Alone PV-WT Hybrid System Grid Connect Inverter Charge Controller Inverter 96% 95% AC Load Bi-Directional Inverter AC Load 98% Real Load = Load + BDI Loss

11 AC Coupling VS DC Coupling Day time system efficiency when PV charge battery Efficiency of PV energy path to charge Battery = 82.08% Efficiency of PV energy path to charge Battery = 88.2% DC coupling Stand Alone PV-WT Hybrid System Grid Connect Inverter Charge Controller 96% 98% Inverter AC Load Bi-Directional Inverter AC Load 95% 90% 90% 82.08%from 100% of PV output 88.20% from 100% of PV output

12 AC Coupling VS DC Coupling Night time system overall efficiency when battery supply load Efficiency from PV to battery and Back to supply load = 74.07% Efficiency from PV to battery and Back to supply load = 79.6% DC coupling Stand Alone PV-WT Hybrid System Grid Connect Inverter Charge Controller 98% Inverter 95% AC Load Bi-Directional Inverter AC Load 95% 95% 95% 95% 82.08%from 100% of PV output 88.20% from 100% of PV output

13 - Both of them are good in different time - DC coupling is better when PV is used to charge battery - AC coupling is better when PV is used to direct supply load System Efficiency Day time charge in to Battery Day time supply to Load Night time round trip supply load DC Coupling 88.20% 93.1% 79.60% AC Coupling 82.08% 96.0% 74.07% - DC or AC coupling which one is better should be effected by Load profile that the PV system operates.

14 Cost of Energy comparision from using DC or AC Coupling when Load Profiles are different simulated by using HOMER

15 1. Uses HOMER to simulate cost of energy 2. Same load energy consumption per day 3. Same PV power, Converter, Battery capacity 4. Change Load Profile - Flat Load, - High Day time Load, - High Night time Load 5. Change PV configuration - PV on AC bus - PV on DC bus
