This paper discusses and determines the optimization process of sizing a hybrid renewable energy system designed for urban residential buildings in Armidale NSW, Australia. The considered renewable energy system comprises of solar photovoltaic (PV) system and wind turbines as small scale or...

In this study, a handy quick estimate of expected power and cost of micro-scale generation wind turbines is generated for the purpose of simplifying and facilitating the deal of non-specialists with the sophisticated technicalities of micro-scale generation wind turbines technologies and...

Intermittency is an apparent characteristic of some renewable energy sources and this specifically applies to solar, wind and tidal renewable sources. Thus, battery storage is a real important element of any photo voltaic (PV) energy generation systems. As well, sizing of battery storage plays a...

This paper examines the applicability of domestic/home power generation technologies utilizing sustainable/renewable energies in rural and regional Australia. Applicability will cover several aspects such as sustainability and viability. The question is why renewable/sustainable energy? Energy...
