Title Feasibility Study of Combined Cooling, Heat and Power (CCHP) Integration in Existing Microgrid Infrastructure
Summary Hybrid Optimization of Multiple Electric Renewables Grid, or HOMER Grid for short, is a software that combines engineering and economics to perform detailed technical and economic analyses of grid-connected microgrids. Users can compare and optimize microgrids of various designs, as well as study their financial feasibility by modelling tariffs, levelized cost of energy and more to arrive at the most optimal, sustainable and cost-beneficial outcome.

While previous projects emphasized on Electric Vehicle (EV) integration in grid-connected systems (e.g., SIT Punggol Campus, Jeju Island 2030 Microgrid), this project will instead investigate the feasibility of Combined Heat and Power (CHP) and Combined Cooling, Heat and Power (CCHP) systems in a microgrid context, with the incorporation of different electrical tariff structures. The software is located in Clean Energy Research Laboratory (CERL) S2-b7c-05. Students with a good background in power engineering and have an interest
in simulation and EVs are encouraged to apply.
