Hybrid Power Plant for the Power Supply of a Rural Area

Abstract

The main task of this thesis is to find a solution to the problem of decentralized power supply in remote areas of Russia. Most often the decentralized power supply is carried out using diesel generators. This method is quite expensive, because in remote areas it is quite difficult to deliver fuel. Therefore, in this case, the cost of fuel delivery may exceed the cost of fuel. Thus, the cost of electricity produced in this way is quite high. It is also worth noting that this method of generating energy brings harm to the environment In this paper, I analyzed the possible scenarios for constructing a hybrid power plant for decentralized power supply of a rural settlement. I tried to develop a power supply system for the village, so that it was cheaper and more environmentally friendly than the old one. In the introduction I justified the relevance of the problem and in subsequent chapters I proceeded directly to the solution of the question. This diploma contains the following structure: initially, the diploma contains information about the object under study, its technical characteristics, as well as climatic conditions. Further, the data on the amount of insolation in accordance with information on electrical loads are calculated, the selection and calculation of the required number of equipment (solar panels, batteries, diesel generators) is made. Then, after the technical part, a financial model was prepared. The final part of this work is the consideration of possible scenarios of the project implementation and sensitivity analysis.
