Abstract :
This paper investigates the most feasible configuration of a hybrid energy system for a typical electric-heated home in St. John´s, Newfoundland. Available renewable energy resources data i.e. hourly wind speed, solar insolation and flow rate in Waterford River and electric power consumption data of an electric-heated house is used for sizing the hybrid energy system. It appears that multi-port dc-dc converter is best suited for the designed hybrid energy system. The results of system sizing, dynamic model and system simulation are presented in the paper
