Abstract :
Some methods for determining the reliability and maintainability of a rural wind-solar power station are presented. The system studied is a renewable energy micro-power station used for rural areas. The reliability analysis is based on the following methods: failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA), success diagram fault tree, and Markov processes
