    In this study, design and optimization of the hybrid renewable energy system consisting of Photovoltaic (PV)/Electrolyzer/Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC) was investigated to provide electricity and heat for Greenhouse in Sanhurfa (Turkey). The coupling of a photovoltaic system with PEMFC was preferred to supply continuous production of electric energy throughout the year. Additionally, produced heat from PEMFC was used to heating of the greenhouse by micro cogeneration application. The MATLAB/Simulink was applied to the design and optimization of the proposed hybrid system. In the designed system, solar energy was selected to produce the Hydrogen (H-2) required to run the electrolyzer. In cases where the solar energy is not sufficient and cannot meet the electricity requirement for the electrolyzer; the H-2 requirement for the operation of the PEMFC was met from the H-2 storage tanks and energy continuity was ensured. The electrolyzer was designed for H-2 demand of the 3 kW PEMFC which were met the greenhouse energy requirement. PEMFC based hybrid system has 48% electrical and 45% thermal efficiencies. According to optimization results obtained for the proposed hybrid system, the levelized cost of energy was found 0.117 $/kWh. The obtained results show the proposed PV/Electrolyzer/PEMFC hybrid power system provides an applicable option for powering stand-alone application in a self sustainable expedient.

    Reliability Based Modeling of Hybrid Solar/Wind Power System for Long Term Performance Assessment
    (Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2021) Eryilmaz, Serkan; Bulanik, Irem; Devrim, Yilser
    This paper is concerned with reliability based long-term performance assessment of hybrid solar/wind power system. In particular, an analytical expression is obtained for the theoretical distribution of the power output of the hybrid system by taking into account the reliability values of renewable energy components. An expression for the expected energy not supplied (EENS) is also derived and used to compute the energy index of reliability (EIR) that is directly related to EENS. Because the derived expressions involve reliability values which are related to mechanical states of the renewable energy components, the results enable us to evaluate properly the performance of the hybrid system. A numerical example is included to illustrate the results.
