Abstract

This article presents the design of a hybrid power system connected to the grid for applications in a rural area in the rural parish of Carlos Concha Torres in the province of Esmeraldas. The applied methodology is of a quantitative nature, the same one that was carried out investigating the potentials of wind and solar energy and compiling data from different sources. HOMER software presents a hybrid optimization model through renewable energies, which was used to analyze the available data and the economic viability of the proposed energy system. Finally, two types of models called outside the network and inside the network are designed and optimized for comparative purposes. It concludes by performing a sensitivity analysis for each model in order to determine the effect of variations in the cost of network energy on its total cost.
