本文基于实际发电侧能源审计、季节性可再生能源可用性与负荷分布的评估以及技术经济分析，提出了适用于度假岛屿的混合可再生能源系统的多种最优组合。选择的度假岛屿是铁曼，因为它代表了南中国海许多度假岛屿的典型能源需求。该岛主要依靠柴油发电。然而，柴油市场价格高且波动大，运行维护成本高，并构成环境风险。因此，为了减轻对柴油的依赖，提出了一种混合可再生能源系统的优化组合。该项目从实际的发电侧审计开始，包括负荷分布、季节性负荷分布和负荷类型，以及对当地发展规划的分析。随后，对太阳能、风能和水能等可利用的可再生资源潜力进行了调查，包括收集和分析气象数据。此外，对水能的勘察研究一直以地形图和水文研究为基础。最后，利用HOMER(电力可再生混合优化模型)软件对混合系统进行技术经济分析。分析的结果包括最优系统配置、混合动力系统的成本、燃料节约和二氧化碳减排。
This paper proposes multiple optimal combinations of hybrid renewable energy systems for a resort island based on actual generation-side energy auditing, assessment of seasonal renewable energy resources availability versus load profiles, and techno-economic analyses. The resort island selected is Tioman, as it represents the typical energy requirements of many resort islands in the South China Sea. The island relies mainly on diesel fuel for electricity generation. However, diesel is subjected to high and volatile market prices, high operation and maintenance costs, and poses environmental risks. Therefore, to mitigate diesel fuel dependency, an optimal combination of hybrid renewable energy systems is proposed. The project starts with an actual generation-side auditing including the distribution of loads, seasonal load profiles, and types of loads as well as an analysis of local development planning. Subsequently, surveys of available renewable resource potentials such as solar, wind, and hydro were conducted that involved collection and analysis of meteorological data. Furthermore, reconnaissance study for hydro potentials has been based on topographic maps and hydrological studies. Finally, HOMER (Hybrid Optimization Model for Electric Renewable) software was used to perform techno-economic analyses for the hybrid system. Results of the analyses include the optimal system configurations, cost of hybrid system, fuel saving, and CO2emission reduction.
