The electrification of the non-interconnected Greek islands is mainly based on Autonomous Power Stations (APSs) that are characterized by considerably high electricity production cost, whilst, in several cases, problems related with power shortage are encountered. At the same time, the...

The hybrid wind–hydro power generation appears to be an attractive solution for isolated, autonomous electric grids in order to increase the wind energy penetration and cost-effectiveness. This work presents a numerical methodology for optimum sizing of the various components of a reversible...
