This paper presents an optimal capacity design of a Hybrid generation system based on economical evaluation for various loads. Optimal sizes of a standalone and grid connection wind- PV hybrid systems were designed for normal, residential and industrial loads using HOMER (Hybrid Optimization Model for Electronic Renewable). Their economical evaluation were performed and compared with a diesel generation system that covers the same loads. The results showed that the stand alone hybrid generation system can be more economical than a diesel generation system for long term operation.

A combined cycle, 'HYBRID', is emerging as a new power generation technology that is particularly suitable for the distributed power generation system, with high energy efficiency and low pollutant emission. Currently micro gas turbines and fuel cells are attracting a lot of attention to meet the future needs in the distributed power generation market. This hybrid system may have every advantages of both systems because a gas turbine is synergistically combined with a fuel cell into a unique combined cycle. The hybrid system is believed to become a leading runner in the distributed power generation market. This paper introduces a current plan associated with the development of the hybrid system which consists of a micro gas turbine and a solid-oxide fuel cell(SOFC).

Photovoltaic energy and wind energy are highly dependent on the season, time and extremely intermittent energy sources. Because of these reasons, in view of the reliability the photovoltaic and the wind power generation system have many problems(energy conversion, energy storage, load control etc.) comparing with conventional power plant. In order to solve these existing problems, hybrid generation system composed of photovoltaic(500W) and wind power system(400W) was suggested. But, hybrid generation system cannot always generate stable output due to the varying weather condition. So, the auxiliary power compensation unit that uses elastic energy of spiral spring was added to hybrid generation system for the present study. It was partly confirmed that hybrid generation system was generated a stable outputs by spiral spring was continuously provided to load.

Recently, the increased interest in environmental issues has led to extensive research for development of green energy generation systems. However, only one type of generation system may not be sufficient for stand-alone mode because it cannot cope with the irregularity of weather condition. A hybrid generation system is able to make up for the weakness of each system. In this paper, a stand-alone hybrid wind/PV system is developed that can guarantee the stable energy supply. The system is suitable for power supply under 50W, and a vertical savonius type of blade was designed and applied for the wind generation system.

Solar thermal power generation allows additional benefits of cheap thermal storage and easy hybridization with other fossil fuel-driven power generation. KIER has been performing the project for solar thermal chemical reaction hybrid power generation. The project is to build and operate the first solar thermal chemical reaction hybrid power generation system in Korea. For concentrating solar thermal energy $m^2$ dish type concentrator was adapted and a heliostat is installed for reflecting horizontal insolation to the dish concentrator. At the moment building the dish concentrator including mirror and heliostat with sun tracking system was completed and it's performance are being closely evaluated. This paper will introduce some detailed designs and construction procedures which we have experienced so far.

A Buoyant Hybrid Power Generation System (BHPGS) described in this paper, is a conceptual approach to a hybrid solar-wind power generation in the near sea. The primary purpose of the BHPGS is given to improve utilization of solar cell modules. Main components of the BHPGS include a solar cell module, buoyant object, power generator, and support assembly including weight. Components such a generator controller, DC/AC converter, etc., are not configured in the current BHPGS because they can easily be purchased as a commercial-off-the-shelf product. In addition, some of the BHPGS applications are discussed.

This paper describes an on-going national R&D program for the development of a gas turbine/fuel cell hybrid power generation system and related R&D activities. The final goal of this program is to develop a 200kW-c1ass gas turbine/fuel cell hybrid power generation system and achieve high efficiency over $60\%$ (AC/LHV). In the first phase of the development, a sub-scaled 60kW-class hybrid system based on the 50kW-class microturbine and the 5kW SOFC will be developed for the purpose of concept proof of the hybrid system. Core components such as the microturbine and the SOFC system are being developed and parallel preparation for system integration is being carried out. Before the core components are assembled in the final system. operating characteristics of a hybrid system are investigated from a simulated system where a turbocharger (microturbine simulator) and a modified fuel cell burner test facility (fuel cell simulator) are employed. The 60kW demonstration unit will be built up and operated to provide the valuable information for the preparation of the final full scale 200kW hybrid system.

Solar thermal power generation is one of promising and well-proven ways to convert solar energy to electricity. Though it requires high initial cost for system construction and continuous efforts for maintainment. it is more positive in terms of efficiency than other solar power generation technologies. Moreover, solar thermal power generation allows additional benefits of cheap thermal storage and easy hybridization with other fossil fuel-driven power generation. Owing to these benefits, large scale solar thermal power generation technology is expected to be competitive to other commercial technologies in the near future. In this paper an overview on the solar thermal hybrid power generation technology and the state of the art in Korea were briefly introduced.
