The aim is to design and model a hybrid microgrid system to provide continuous power supply to rural communities.
Designed subsystems including photovoltaics, fuel cells, and energy storage.
Modeling and simulation were performed using MATLAB software.
The hybrid system includes eight subsystems to ensure efficient power distribution.
The grid delivers 6kW, PV system provides 5kW, fuel cell offers 4.8kW, and storage produces 5.1kW.
The system can meet the power needs of the community based on available energy sources.
Significant improvement in sustainability and potential reduction of energy poverty in rural electrification.
