Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia, located at 24° 42.81' N, 46° 40.52' E, presents a unique opportunity to evaluate the viability of hybrid renewable hydrogen systems in a primary metropolitan environment. The city has a yearly average solar irradiation of 5.77 kWh/m 2 /day, reaching a high of 7.87 kWh/m 2 /day in June (Fig. 8).
The techno-economic feasibility of grid-connected and off-grid hydrogen systems in three regions of Saudi Arabia—Yanbu, Al Jouf, and Riyadh—is evaluated in this study. HOMER simulations optimized system configurations, incorporating location-specific solar irradiance, wind resources, temperature profiles, and component costs.
Recent advancements in renewable energy technologies have significantly increased interest in hybrid photovoltaic (PV) and wind energy systems for hydrogen production, particularly in regions with abundant renewable resources, such as Saudi Arabia.
The city has a yearly average solar irradiation of 5.77 kWh/m 2 /day, reaching a high of 7.87 kWh/m 2 /day in June (Fig. 8). Moreover, Riyadh has an average wind speed of 5.76 m/s (Fig. 9), highlighting its significant solar and wind energy production potential.
Despite the growing body of global research on hybrid renewable hydrogen systems, there is a significant knowledge gap in evaluating these systems within specific regions like Saudi Arabia. Most existing studies offer generalized assessments that overlook various locations' distinct environmental and economic factors.
