Feasibility study of hybrid retrofits to an isolated off-grid diesel power plant

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors performed a pre-feasibility of wind penetration into an existing diesel plant of a village in north eastern part of Saudi Arabia, where wind speed data from a near by airport and the load data from the village have been used.
Journal ArticleDOI

Wind power resource assessment for Rafha, Saudi Arabia

TL;DR: In this paper, the analysis of wind speed data and available energy in Rafha area using wind machines of 600, 1000 and 1500kW sizes from three manufacturers was presented, and the long-term annual mean values of wind speeds were found to vary between a minimum of 2.5m/s in the year 2002 and a maximum of 4.9m/m in 1990.
Journal ArticleDOI

Techno-Economic Potential of Retrofitting Diesel Power Systems with Hybrid Wind-Photovoltaic-Diesel Systems for Off-Grid Electrification of Remote Villages of Saudi Arabia

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyzed wind speed and solar radiation data of Rafha, KSA, and assessed the impact of renewable energy on the quality of air quality in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dissemination of off-grid hybrid wind-diesel-battery power systems for electrification of isolated settlements of hot regions

TL;DR: In this article, hourly mean wind-speed data recorded at an airport, K.S.A., has been analyzed to investigate the technical and economic feasibility/viability of utilizing off-grid hybrid (wind-diesel-battery) power systems to meet the load requirements of a typical remote/isolated villag.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bundled conductor configuration optimization for compact transmission lines incorporating electromagnetic fields management

TL;DR: In this paper, an optimization calculation procedure was proposed for bundled conductor configuration of compact transmission lines to improve certain operating performance and electromagnetic fields (EMF) management techniques. The objective function of this optimization problem is to allow the charges and surface maximum gradients on all subconductors to be the same and as balanced as possible.
