Tiivistelmä
As energy demands rise and the urgency for climate neutrality grows, off-grid Hybrid Renewable Energy Systems (HRES) offer a promising solution for decentralized and sustainable energy generation. This thesis explores the technological and economic aspects of implementing HRES, with a focus on Southwestern Finland—a region with favorable conditions for solar and wind energy. The thesis analyzes different system configurations, infrastructure requirements, operational strategies, maintenance concerns, and lifecycle sustainability. A detailed case study of a large-scale horticultural business’ energy system in Turku is presented, demonstrating real-world application through solar installations, biomass boilers, electric boilers, and energy storage solutions. The findings reveal that while initial infrastructure investments are significant, HRES can enhance energy resilience and self-sufficiency, especially when tailored to specific geographic and operational contexts. The thesis concludes that practical implementation of HRES is not only viable but increasingly essential for future energy independence and environmental sustainability.
