HOMER Grid 1.9
The Electrical tab in the Simulation Results window shows details about the annual production and consumption of electrical energy by the system.
Production
The Production table contains varying information depending on the components in the system you selected. It lists the total annual energy output of each electrical energy-producing component of the power system, plus the total electrical production.
Consumption
The Consumption table contains varying information depending on the components in the system you selected. It lists the total amount of electrical energy that went to serve each of the system's electrical loads. The following values appear in this table when applicable.
Variable |
Description |
The amount of energy that went towards serving the AC primary load(s) |
|
Electrolyzer Load Served |
The amount of electrical energy consumed by the electrolyzer |
Grid Sales |
The total amount of electricity sold to the grid during the year |
Total Load Served |
The total amount of electrical load served during the year |
Note: The total production can exceed the sum of the total consumption and the excess electricity because of losses in the storage and converter.
Excess Electricity
The following table defines the values in the first Quantity table.
Variable |
Description |
The total amount of excess electricity that occurred during the year, as well as the excess electricity fraction expressed as a percentage of the total electrical production |
Other Outputs
The following table describes the variables in the second Quantity table.
Variable |
Description |
The renewable fraction is the fraction of the energy delivered to the load that originated from renewable power sources |
|
Maximum Renewable Penetration |
The maximum value of the renewable penetration that occurs over the year |
