Generation of energy from renewable resources is mainly implemented to supply to remote rural areas. In this context, we attempted to exploit the renewable energy (especially solar and wind power) that characterizes a remote and isolated site in Algeria, which also benefits from motivating tourist characteristics, our aim is to develop the site through supplying habitats with clean and free energy and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. For this purpose, we suggest the installation of a hybrid energy system (PV, wind and diesel), and we will do an optimization study about the feasibility and ability of the proposed system to meet the energy needs without the need to store energy to reduce the cost of installation, this work is based on a real case study and the simulation results obtained by HOMER show the effectiveness and the flexibility of the proposed system against to load variations while ensuring better stability.

Keywords: Hybrid system; Renewable energy; Solar photovoltaic; Wind power; Solar energy.
