Introduction to HOMER Software for Renewable Energy System Design in Wind Engineering, Slides of Environmental Law and Policy

An overview of homer software, its features, and the power sources and loads that can be modeled using it. Homer is a tool from nrel for evaluating design options for off-grid and grid-connected power systems, including renewable energy technologies and energy storage. The various power sources, such as solar pv, wind turbines, hydro power, and fuel cells, that can be modeled in homer. It also mentions the types of loads, including daily profiles with seasonal variation, deferrable loads, thermal loads, and efficiency measures, that can be considered. The document concludes with information about webcasts and sample input files for designers who have benefited from using homer.
