Integration PV and Wind into the Grid to Supply Electricity in Palu (Indonesia)

Article Preview

Abstract:

Palu has onshore wind potential 3.6 m/s in average and offshore 5.3 m/s in average. Based on the weather condition which has temperature between 27.3 degree Celcius - 37 degree Celcius, Palu has solar potential with an average insolation value 6.6. Shortage that is quite often happen in Palu (Indonesia) can be solved by installing 19.5 MW PV and 9.9 MW wind that can produce electricity of 234.1 MWh per day with total investment cost of US $129,005,860. By replacing some diesel generators with PV and wind and combined with 104.5 MW existing capacity, the total fuel can be saved is 16,599 gal per day and the total reduced CO2 production is 167 kg per day.
