Abstract
The economics associated with the major system components for remote-area power supplies is discussed, and a detailed description of the various system configurations is given. The discussion covers diesel generators, battery storage, inverters, photovoltaic and wind-powered generators. Series, switched and parallel hybrid systems are considered. Results and conclusions based on tests carried out at Murdoch University Energy Research Institute are included
