While environmental and energy concerns have become global issues, the government of South Korea has made notable efforts and formulated plans for the diffusion of renewable energy generation facilities for the nation's public and governmental institutions. Accordingly, Jeju Island has become one of the most promising locations for utilizing renewable energy resources. This study aims to propose potential configurations for renewable energy generation facilities (mainly solar and wind energy facilities) in response to the electricity demand of the main local governmental offices of Jeju Special Self-Governing Province. The study utilizes the hybrid optimization of multiple energy resources software to simulate two optimized configurations for generation at a cost of energy of $0.306 per kWh (independent) and $0.204 per kWh (grid-connected) with 100% renewable fraction for the island. The implications of the simulation results and limitations of the study are discussed.

Remote areas in UAE are still fully powered by diesel generators. The rapid rise in the prices of petroleum products and environmental concerns have led to demand for hybrid renewable energy generators. Advances in renewable energy technologies impart further impetus to techno-economic power production. Protecting the landscape and demography of the desert by optimizing the power supply cost via an efficient hybrid power system is the key issue.Simulation results on the cross utilization of a photovoltaic/wind/battery/fuel-cell hybrid-energy source to power the off-grid living space are presented. Simultaneous exploitation of different renewable energy sources to power off-grid applications together with battery and hydrogen energy storage options is demonstrated. HOMER software from the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) is used to perform detailed techno-economic analyses. It simulates all possible system configurations that fulfil the suggested load for the selected sites under given conditions of renewable resources.

“…Recent work has shown that small-scale CHP and PV technologies can produce significant emission reductions at the residential level [34,35]. Other hybrid systems include PV-Diesel [36,37], PV-Wind [38][39][40], or PV-Wind-Diesel systems [41][42][43][44]. These kinds of hybrid system have lower costs than traditional systems.…”

Abstract:Installing sustainable and renewable energy systems is a promising way of relieving Hong Kong's dependence on imported fossil fuels. Solar photovoltaic (PV) technology is a perfect solution for Hong Kong as it fits the economic and geographic situation. Through a review of the PV development history of five leading PV countries, Germany, Japan, Italy, Mainland China, and the USA, this paper serves as a useful policy toolbox to aid PV development. Based on the forerunners' successful PV industry experiences and Hong Kong's unique local situations, a series of incentive strategies were proposed for Hong Kong to help promote the utilization of solar PV systems by reducing the initial investment and providing reasonable subsidies at the initial stages and during the operation period of the PV systems. These results could be a practical reference for promoting renewable energy applications for local policy-makers.
