Abstract
Pakistanhas been experiencing a severe energy crisis in recent decades due to insufficient electricity generation capacity relative to demand. Shortages of electricity and gas have had a direct impact on domestic and commercial activities. Natural gas is the essential resource for the confined electricity, due to the continued reduction of this source and demand, companies generating power now rely on relatively expensive furnace oil. This crisis can be overcome by looking for sources of fuel that are economically rich and widely available within the country. The majority of the Pakistani population lives in rural and remote areas currently has no access to electricity. However, renewable energy resources, particularly biomass, solar and wind, can play a key role in electrifying remote areas of the country.
A hybrid power system is a promising energy generation procedure that involves a combination of diverse energy systems, mostly renewable for optimal output configuration. In modern renewable energy research (RE), optimum conditions for the production and consumption of energy systems are considered an essential feature of the economic burden of shipping. Wind, solar and biomass are three renewable energy sources that are primarily focused on this thesis and on this basis a hybrid feed system is proposed.
