Abstract:
The optimization of the Hybrid PV/Mutobo-Hydropower plant generation using linear programing is very important in the operation of power plant. The suitable choice of the hybrid system that optimizes its size and costs components are crucial and challenging jobs, funding for the system sanity. In this thesis, the issue is stated as an optimization maximize the cost profitability. The hybrid system design process makes use of the suggested approach. The case study is Mutobo hydropower plant located in Rwanda, northern province. The suggested linear programming's dependable, quicker and offers outstanding, practically optimal solution of the investment costs systems with many renewable energy sources included. The outcomes demonstrated the viability of the hybrid PV and hydropower system and its ability to mitigate the effects of power shortages in distant places during the dry season.
