Abstract: This paper analyzes the impact on an off-grid renewable hybrid system composed of photovoltaic energy, hydrokinetic turbines, batteries and biomass gasifiers, using various types of biomass in order to determine the optimal configuration of the system located in southern Ecuador. Three types of energy dispatch, charge cycle, load following and combined cycle have been proposed with the objective of determining new patterns on the behavior of sources with respect to electric demand.
