Designing a Distributed Renewable Energy Generation System for Use in Challenging Climatic and Landscape Conditions

This paper presents a concept for distributed renewable energy generation systems designed for use in challenging climate and landscape conditions. The proposed configuration is a hybrid system utilizing solar, wind, and small hydroelectric power plants, selected for their adaptability to remote and infrastructure-constrained areas. Particular attention is paid to the system's operational sustainability, modular scalability, and energy autonomy, considering environmental constraints, resource availability, and operational efficiency. A systems approach is employed to determine the optimal configuration of generating units, energy storage units, and control subsystems. As a result, a basic distributed energy system configuration is proposed that can serve as the foundation for decentralized energy supply in hard-to-reach areas. A test example of the system consisting of a 100W solar module and a 200W wind turbine is considered for the study, but the characteristics of these devices can be easily changed by the user according to their requests and needs. The study highlights the potential of renewable energy sources as a sustainable foundation for reliable off-grid energy solutions.
