Integration of diesel plant into a hybrid power system using power pinch analysis

Diesel power systems are one of the schemes for energy supply generation. However, they are mostly associated with difficulties of emission control and cost of the maintenance on top of the diesel fuel cost. Some of these problems can be reduced by incorporating renewable energy such as wind turbine...
