Dispatchable Hybrid Renewable Energy System with Wind, Solar, Battery, and Hydrogen Storage: A Case Study in Ras Ghareb, Egypt

This paper explores a predictive control-based energy dispatching approach for a Hybrid Renewable Energy System (HRES) in Ras Ghareb, Egypt. The goal is to efficiently manage energy flow while considering regional conditions, load demands, and battery/hydrogen tank constraints. Using Model Predictive Control (MPC) in MATLAB-Simulink, the HRES incorporates wind and solar energy, batteries, and hydrogen tanks. Through long-term simulations, the study demonstrates the strategy's effectiveness in load demand tracking, renewable energy optimization, and maintaining battery and hydrogen levels. This approach offers a practical solution for off-grid energy management in Ras Ghareb, accommodating diverse energy sources, storage options, and load patterns.
