- Title
TOOLS AND TECHNIQUES FOR OPTIMIZATION OF HYBRID RENEWABLE ENERGY SOURCES: A REVIEW.
- Authors

- Abstract
The world's energy consumption has risen drastically in the last few decades due to the fast-growing population, urbanization which lead to increased consumption in industrialization and domestic comfort. Most of the world's energy demand is fulfilled with conventional fuels to date, but these sources are not everlasting, it will exhaust in a few years. Nuclear fuels which are used for electricity generation are also on the verge of exhaustion and the recycling process of uranium fuel is a riskier process. The world is witnessing drastic climatic changes like global warming, an increase in sea level; that result in adverse health and environmental consequences. To get the better of these problems or at least limit them to a certain level, researchers all around the world have accepted renewable energy sources as the alternative source of energy. Again the renewable energy sources are uncertain or unpredictable in nature. It is better to use hybrid sources that can counterbalance the indiscriminate nature of each other. The hybridization of renewable sources is a complex non-linear problem. Researchers have adopted different optimization techniques to find the optimal size and cost of available resources. This chapter summarizes different optimization techniques used so far which helps researchers find suitable options out of many.
