Abstract

The need for electricity is increasingly becoming a problem because of limited energy sources so that there are several villages that have not received electricity supply from PLN, one of which is Mallahing Village. The geographical location of the village supports the use of Solar and Bayu Hybrid Power Plants, so simulations need to be carried out to determine the optimal configuration and electrical system. Mallahing village has a potential wind speed of 3.58 m/s and a potential solar irradiation of 4.63 kw/m2. The simulation results get the optimal configuration for the load requirement of 231 kwh/day is to use a PV capacity of 16.1 Kw, a Wind Turbine with a capacity of 5.1 kW of 15 units, an Inverter of 16.3 Kw and a Storage of 220 kWh. The electrical system on the solar panels produces a total production of 22,276 kwh/yr. Meanwhile, the wind turbine electrical system produces a total production of 70.446 kwh/yr. The optimal configuration has a Net Present Cost of Rp. 3,862,619,107.74. Of the total system production, solar panels supply electricity by 24% and wind turbines supply electricity by 76%. Based on the results of the study, it was found that the optimal configuration and operation of the system for 25 years and based on the potential for wind speed and solar irradiation at the research site, wind turbines produce more electrical energy to supply load needs compared to solar panels because solar panels only operate from morning to evening.
