Diesel generators are being employed as a means of generating electrical power in various regions across the globe. Considering the imperative to foster environmental sustainability, it appears that conventional electric-producing systems may not be economically viable or environmentally sound, necessitating their replacement with renewable energy alternatives. This study examines the viability of utilizing hybrid electric systems powered by renewable energy sources in health clinics located in Salalah, Oman. The HOMER software, which is utilized for the analysis of system configurations, was employed to examine the application and functional constraints of each hybridized setup. The results indicated that the renewable energy system exhibited the lowest cost of energy in contrast to both the generator set and hybridized energy systems. Renewable energy has superior power generation capabilities in comparison to hybridized energy and standalone generator set systems, rendering it the most economically feasible option and a more favorable choice for meeting the electrification requirements of health clinics. |
