The use of fossil energy for electricity production is an evident source of pollution, global warming and climate change. Consequently, researchers have been working to shift toward sustainable and clean energy by exploiting renewable an environmentally friendly resources such as wind and solar energies. On the other hand, energy security can only be achieved by considering multiple resources. Large-scale renewable energy power plants are a key solution for diversifying the total energy mix and ensuring energy security. This paper presents a contribution to diversify the energy mix in Algeria and help mitigate power shortages and improve grid performance. In particular, the paper aims at designing and modeling a large-scale hybrid photovoltaic-wind system that is grid connected. An innovative control approach using improved particle swarm optimized PI controllers is proposed to control the hybrid system and generate the maximum power from the available wind and solar energy resources. Furthermore, economic, environmental and feasibility studies of the project were conducted using HOMER software to assess the viability of the system and its contribution to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
使用化石能源发电显然是污染、全球变暖和气候变化的一个源头。因此，研究人员一直致力于通过开发风能和太阳能等可再生且环保的资源转向可持续和清洁能源。另一方面，只有考虑多种资源才能实现能源安全。大规模可再生能源发电厂是使能源组合多样化并确保能源安全的关键解决方案。本文为使阿尔及利亚的能源组合多样化、帮助缓解电力短缺并改善电网性能做出了贡献。具体而言，本文旨在设计和建模一个并网的大规模混合光伏 - 风力系统。提出了一种使用改进的粒子群优化PI控制器的创新控制方法来控制混合系统，并从可用的风能和太阳能资源中产生最大功率。此外，使用HOMER软件对该项目进行了经济、环境和可行性研究，以评估系统的可行性及其对减少温室气体排放的贡献。
