Abstract

Hybrid biogas/solar renewable energy system is an electricity production system made up of combination of biogas and solar energy. This hybrid is considered to be best module because it is abundant and environmentally friendly due to the limited reserves of fossil fuels and global environmental concerns for the production of electrical power generation and utilization. This paper develops a general hybridized optimization model for biogas/solar system for electrical generation of Ade-Oyo in Ibadan, Oyo State. In this paper, a pig dug was used to prepare the digester materials for biogas energy while a Shockley diode principle was used for PV power model. Simulation was carried out using MATLAB software and the total power for the hybrid system is formulated. The result revealed that the total power generated by biogas/solar hybrid system is the addition of the power generated by the biogas energy and solar PV panel and is given as: . The result shows that that there is a positive relationship between the electrical energy/power generated with biogas/solar energy. This paper will be helpful in demonstrating the viability of biogas/solar energy for rural communities and remote areas
