Assignment OBE
a Remote Area
Objective:
Develop a conceptual design of a hybrid power station (e.g., solar, wind, and diesel backup) that
supplies reliable power to a remote area with minimal environmental impact.
Assignment Guidelines
1. Problem Statement
A remote village (Tentative energy demand 50 kW) has no access to the national grid.
Design a power station that meets their energy requirements while addressing technical,
economic, and environmental constraints.
2. Key Tasks
1. Load Estimation: Calculate daily and peak power requirements of the village based on
hypothetical or provided data.
2. Technology Selection: Decide on the energy mix (solar, wind, diesel, hydro, etc.) and
justify your choices based on availability of resources.
3. System Design:
Propose a system configuration (e.g., PV panels, wind turbines, battery storage, diesel
generators).
Draw a block diagram for the system.
