Fig. 33.3 Hourly electricity generation from the proposed microgrid
system considered includes a hybrid solar-wind-battery-diesel generation system,
which currently is the most widely applicable and rapidly growing microgrid system
type. The proposed microgrid was planned to be analyzed in a standard Japanese
house in Kasuga city in Fukuoka prefecture. The results revealed the total power
output from the system could sufficiently meet the demand load requirements of
the selected household area. This simple analysis offered an estimate of the gap
between current tariff regime in Japan and the LCOE of the system which can provide
