The economics of a solar/diesel hybrid — A case study

H.A. van der Linde and A.A.M. Sayigh

Renewable Energy, 1996, vol. 9, issue 1, 884-886

Abstract: The energy system, discussed, was a typical hybrid where a farmer decided that with the escalating cost of diesel as well as the logistics attached to the supply of diesel to his farm, adding a photovoltaic array to his diesel based system would make economic sense. A study of the energy consumption in comparison with the cost input for different scenarios was carried out.
