Abstract

Challenges nowadays go to a more clean planet with low cost of operation and energy saving. From another perspective, balancing the energy trilemma paradigm aspects, which is the economic, the environment, and the security performance is crucial for any effective energy system. Therefore, Hybrid energy systems are considered an effective way to achieve the above goals; however, their cost mainly depends on where it’s established especially in remote locations. In order to lower the cost of such systems, in the long run, renewable energy is integrated into the system. Wind and solar energy are complementary on a daily, annual, and regional basis; accordingly, the energy provided by wind turbines and PV has become a major renewable energy resource stand-alone. However, storage resources and diesel generators are also used to overcome the intermittent nature of wind and solar energy. Therefore, the main focus of the research is modeling and management of a sustainable productive environmental Hybrid renewable energy system in a chosen remote community. This sustainable- economic energy model is aligned with the Egyptian government 2030 development plan. Moreover, this sustainable community is considered a promising model in remote communities to be relying on itself in productivity of food and energy which is effect by its role on the Egyptian national economy.
