System Optimization using SAM was created by arun.raghu@ttu.edu
I have a project to do where i need simulate and find the best possible combination of renewable resources at a place for a given load requirements so that i can get the best power output from all the sources. So, is there a way to do this? if yes, can you please help me in how to simulate that?

Thank you
Arun Raghu

Dear Arun,

I'm not sure whether you are trying to model a hybrid power system that combines different kinds of renewable energy equipment, or trying to determine what kind of renewable energy system is best for a given location and load requirement.

SAM cannot model hybrid power systems, but it is useful for comparing different renewable energy technologies.

Best regards,
Paul.
