Hibrit enerji sistemlerinin teorik simülasyonu ve optimizasyonu

The renewable energy is being the main aim for the countries all over the world. The global warming issue is getting more dangerous on our earth. The companies are aiming now to use the renewable energy to limit the harmful emissions and reduce it as much as possible. This thesis focused on the renewable energy and its resources in Turkey. The infinite value of solar radiation and wind speed are the purpose of this study because it can produce a clean energy by using a hybrid energy system which consists of PhotoVoltaic (PV) panels and wind turbine generators, besides the use of bidirectional converter, batteries and a back-up diesel generator, in some cases, to cover the electrical load demand. The selected areas were Cubuk in Ankara and Urla in Izmir. According to the known Hybrid Optimization Model for Electrical Renewable (HOMER) program, the solar radiation and wind speed values will be taken by using the tool of NASA surface meteorology and solar energy database after entering the longitude and latitude values of the areas. The software will implement the proposed hybrid energy system, with all the possibilities and components, and will suggest the top result. The top result will be shown according to the PV panels, besides the quantity of the wind turbine generators which will being used in the hybrid energy system. The simulation results of HOMER software suggested two hybrid energy systems for Cubuk / Ankara and Urla / Izmir. For Urla, the first hybrid system includes 800 kW PV panels, one 250 kW wind turbine generator and one diesel generator. The second hybrid system consists of 1,300 kW PV panels and three wind turbine generators of 250 kW each, without the needy of using the diesel generator, which means that the second hybrid system is producing a clean energy 100%.
