Abstract
Myanmar boosts the Renewables harvesting with On-Grid and Off-Grid options to implement 2030 Agenda. Reversing the degradation of the Coastal Eco-System is also the prioritized Agenda. The research and deployment of Photovoltaic (PV), Wind, and Hybrid Mini-Grids are at the initial state. This work imagined for supporting these. Thus, a village Lel Hpet, located in Palaw Township, Tanintharyi Region chose due to its blessings of PV and Wind resources. The villagers currently use the Diesel Generators for the industrial loads and the fuelwood for the cooking. These cause the negative impacts. Hence, Zero-Emission Energy Model analyzed. The total demand separated into Primary Load and Deferrable Load. The simulation innovated with four Models on the excellent platform for Energy Planning, HOMER (Hybrid Optimization of Multiple Energy Resources) Pro (version 3.11.4). Then, the Best Model is selected. Its simulative results proved Wind is more feasible than PV on the Tanintharyi Coast, PV and Wind can compensate each other during their less generation months, and the larger Off-Grid Mini-gird is more cost-effective. The savings of the Diesel fuel usage and its costs, and the reduction of GHG (greenhouse gas) Emissions predicted. The proposed Climate-friendly, standalone PV-Wind-Battery Hybrid Mini-Grid can improves the Green penetration in Southern Myanmar.
