Hybrid Energy Solution to Improve Irrigation Systems: HY4RES vs. HOMER Optimization Models

[EN] A new methodology for hybrid energy systems (HESs) was developed, namely the HY4RES model, tailored for the water sector, covering hybrid energy objective functions and grid or battery support using optimization algorithms in Solver, MATLAB, and Python, with evolutionary methods. HOMER is used...

HOMER is used for hybrid microgrids and allows for comparison with HY4RES, the newly developed model. Both models demonstrated flexibility in optimizing hybrid renewable solutions. This study analyzed an irrigation system for 3000 m(3)/ha (without renewables (Base case) and the Proposed system-with PV solar and pumped-hydropower storage to maximize cash flow over 25 years). Case 1-3000 m(3)/ha presented benefits due to PV supplying similar to 87% of energy, reducing grid dependency to similar to 13%. Pumped-hydropower storage (PHS) charges with excess solar energy, ensuring 24 h irrigation. Sensitivity analyses for Case 2-1000-and Case 3-6000 m(3)/ha-highlighted the advantages and limitations of water-energy management and system optimization. Case 2 was the most economical due to lower water-energy needs with noteworthy energy sales (similar to 73.4%) and no need for the grid. Case 3 led to increased operating costs relying heavily on grid energy (61%), with PV providing only 39%. PHS significantly lowered operating costs and enhanced system flexibility by selling excess energy to the grid.The authors are grateful for the project HY4RES (Hybrid Solutions for Renewable Energy Systems) EAPA_0001/2022 from the INTERREG ATLANTIC AREA PROGRAMME, for the grants of the two first authors, as well as the Foundation for Science and Technology's support to UIDB/04625/2020, the research unit CERIS, for the lab support.MDPI AGDepartamento de Ingeniería Hidráulica y Medio AmbienteEscuela Politécnica Superior de AlcoyInterregFundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia, PortugalRepositorio Institucional de la Universitat Politècnica de València Riunet20242024-08-01journal articlehttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501VoRhttp://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85info:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://riunet.upv.es/handle/10251/214558reponame:RiuNet.
