“…), solar energy (thermal and photovoltaic), wind energy, and biogas (for cooking, electrification and hot water). The biogas is produced from pigs, cattle and sheep, and is used for cooking and, later, the generation of electrical energy and water heating, while solar thermal energy is proposed to only be used for hot water, and other renewable energy sources are only to be used for electricity generation [12]. In Figure 1, we can see these resources used for energy production, for example, cooking and hot water.…”

“…The data indicate that biogas resources are highest, followed by solar energy and biomass, including crop residues, forest canopies, and wind potential. Table 2 shows the annual availability of resources available in each of the scenarios proposed by the authors of [12]. These scenarios are considered in this research with the objective of optimizing those resources available for use and reducing the COE, an index that economically restricts the implementation of these systems.…”

The generation of energy from renewable sources is a fundamental aspect for the sustainable development of society, and several energy sources such as solar, biomass, biogas, and wind must be used to the maximum to meet existing needs. In Chile, there are villages that are off-grid. A real case study is presented in this research. To meet the needs of this village we have proposed a mathematical optimization model using a CPLEX optimizer to generate the necessary energy power while minimizing the cost of energy (COE). In this study, different scenarios have been evaluated with respect to the existing energy availabilities, for example, in different periods of the year, demonstrated in terms of economic costs, the viability of resources such as biomass and biogas, and the viability of the energy production of wind power given the associated high costs. Finally, the effect of the use of renewable energy in consideration of CO2 emissions is studied in our research.
