Role Of Energy Management In Hybrid Renewable Energy Systems: Case Study-Based Analysis Considering Varying Seasonal Conditions, Recep Yumurtaci

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

The recent popularity of alternative energy technologies is mainly promoted by the increasing awareness of environmental concerns as well as the economic impacts of the depleting fossil fuel reserves. Among several alternative technologies, wind- and solar-based energy have been given specific importance with government-based support for providing a cost-effective structure to realize better penetration of such environmentally friendly sources in the energy market. Even these sources are advantageous over the conventional means of energy production from many aspects, a main drawback being the total dependence on the meteorological conditions (wind speed, solar radiation, temperature, etc.) of the wind and solar …
