The Energy Engineering Department at GTU is pleased to share that the research paper titled “Techno-economic optimization and scenario-based assessment of a high-renewable PV–wind–hydro hybrid energy system with long-duration storage” has been published in the journal Energy Conversion and Management: X.
The research presents a multi-objective NSGA-II optimization framework for PV–wind–hydro hybrid energy systems integrated with long-duration energy storage technologies, including Pumped Hydro Storage (PHS) and piston-based Solid Gravity Energy Storage (P-SGES).
The study highlights that monofacial PV–wind–hydro systems with PHS offer an effective balance between reliability, economic feasibility, and renewable energy integration, particularly for hydrologically constrained regions.
This achievement reflects the department’s continued commitment to advancing sustainable energy research and developing resilient renewable power systems for the future.
