Dear all,

I'd like to ask how can I use SAM to design and simulate the Energy Yield as well as the economic analysis either for PV-diesel, or PV-wind-diesel hybrid systems? Please, Does anyone has run a similar simulation? 

Thanks for your response in advance. 

Best regards, 
Abdulrahman

Dear Abdulrahman,

SAM is not designed to model diesel hybrid systems or off-grid power systems. There are some ways to approximate those systems. HOMER is a model better suited to modeling hybrid power systems with generators than SAM.

Best regards,
Paul.

Thank you so much, Paul. 

It's will be a great pleasure if you can tell where I can find the examples in SAM of approximation the off-grid PV systems either with battery or diesel?
