Conducting a techno-economic analysis for using hybrid energies in Australia. The best combinations of renewable energy resources are identified. The cost and carbon emission for the configurations have been measured.
However, stand-alone HESs often face sizing issues, under-sizing a hybrid energy system risks operational failure and unmet electrical demands. On the other hand, oversizing resolves reliability issues but raises costs due to surplus energy production. This surplus can lead to energy wastage or power failures, along with increased costs.
According to the findings in , the levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) ranges from $0.301/kWh to $1.115/kWh and the optimized hybrid configurations incorporating batteries necessitate a lower rated power for both the EL and fuel cell (FC) in comparison to hydrogen-based systems without batteries.
To address this challenge, hybrid energy systems (HES) incorporating energy storage, such as batteries, hydrogen, and capacitors can be installed in a stand-alone configuration , , .
Australia’s electricity supply needs to reach a minimum of 50% renewable energy by 2030 and zero emissions well before 2050 to efectively tackle climate change. Energy storage technologies are a vital complementary technology to renewable energy enabling Australia to transition to a clean, reliable, afordable electricity grid.
