Alternative energy technologies are receiving significant attention due to diminishing traditional fossil fuel resources and increasing worldwide energy demand. Hybrid renewable energy systems (HRES), which consist of solar, wind and other energy generation and storage units, have proven to be effective in dealing with the intermittent generation and scarce supply of a single renewable resource. Both residential electricity consumption and energy-intensive process industries are studied from the perspective of demand management as well as dispatch optimization.
We collaborate with Professor Nael El-Farra on this project.
