Popis:	This article presents the development of a computational model for the sizing optimization of an off-grid hybrid solar wind electric power generation system. The model includes a PV model, wind power model, and a model for the required battery. The developed mathematical model also comprises a model for a diesel generator as an alternative for the storage battery. A simulation code has been developed using MATLAB to solve the mathematical model and simulate the performance of the hybrid system with different configuration for performance analysis and optimal sizing purpose. The mathematical model and the computer code have been developed using a general approach. This approach can be used to simulate, analyze and optimize any hybrid solar/wind/battery/diesel off-grid electric power generation systems. Also, it can be utilized for any remote area in the world depending on the weather data used as input to the developed simulation code. The results obtained via the presently developed model and code have be...
