Abstract:
Renewable energy sources like solar, wind, biomass, hydropower, geothermal and ocean
resources are considered as a natural option for generating clean energy. But the electricity
generated from solar and wind is less than the electricity generated by fossil fuels, In spite
of that, electricity generation by utilizing PV cells and wind turbine increased rapidly in
recent years. This thesis is about analysis of Biomass & Solar PV based hybrid power
system for a building. Comparison of hybrid energy system consists of biomass and solar
energy with single sourced power system like Biomass and Solar is the main focal point of
this work. Enough electricity will be produce by the hybrid system to power up an entire
building by processing MSW using direct combustion technique and utilizing solar energy
by using Solar PV panels, also added designing of the hybrid power system using
renewable energy sources, load analysis for an entire residential building, software analysis
for this micro-grid optimization working by Homer Pro software. Moreover, waste
management are also within the scope of this thesis along with the Schematic diagrams of
the system. This thesis also added designing of the hybrid power system using renewable
energy sources, load analysis for an entire residential building, software analysis for this
micro-grid optimization working by Homer Pro software. The desired hybrid system is
designed to provide approximately 70- 80% of energy from the biomass, 20% from solar
PV and the remaining will be reliant on main grid line.
