If you are considering four or more different quantities of wind turbines or batteries, using the Optimizer may be a good choice. Tip: If you are considering a small number of wind turbines (i.e., 0, 1, or 2 turbines), it may be better to enter the quantities in the Search Space, and not use the Optimizer. You can also sort and filter on PV size to see only results from one optimization at a time. You can compare the optimal systems with each size of PV, to find the best overall system. All the optimization results are listed together in the Optimization Results table on the Results page.
If you have 0, 1, 2, and 3 in the table, you will see the optimal system configuration for the system with no PV, and with a PV capacity of 1 kW, 2 kW, and 3 kW. Using the Optimizer with a Search Spaceįor example, if you have a PV with a regular Search Space (shown above, left) and several other components with the Optimizer enabled (shown above, right), HOMER runs an optimization with each Search Space value on the list. In that case, HOMER runs one optimization for each combination in the Search Space. You can also mix components that are optimized with those that have regular Search Space entries together in one model. You can optimize up to four components at a time. HOMER automatically finds the optimal size or quantity for you. HOMER compares the quantities between the upper and lower bounds with the base.
If you enable the Optimizer for a component, you do not need to enter a Search Space number for that component, only the lower and upper limits of the range to consider. Check the Advanced button to change the Upper and Lower values. Click the HOMER Optimizer radio button to enable the Optimizer. You can use the HOMER Optimizer for the Converter, Storage, PV, and Wind Turbine Components. If checked, HOMER issues warnings in the results for systems that meet the criteria you specify here. Issue a warning if an off-grid system has. If checked, HOMER prevents the system from producing more than the allowable amount of excess thermal energy. If you want HOMER to simulate systems that contain both types of turbines, check this check box. If you add two types of wind turbines to the schematic and only want to choose between them, leave this check box unchecked. If checked, HOMER simulates system configurations that contain more than one type of wind turbine.
It has no effect if you are considering only one generator.Īllow systems with two types of wind turbines If checked, HOMER considers systems that contain more than one generator.
