MOHRES, a Software Tool for Analysis and Multiobjective Optimisation of Hybrid Renewable Energy Systems-An Overview of Capabilities

An overview of the functionality and general features of software tool MOHRES (Multiobjective Optimisation of Hybrid Renewable Energy Systems) and its main unique features are explained. The distinguishable capabilities include multi-criteria assessment and multiobjective optimisation, involvement of the hybrid renewable energy systems end-users in the design process, integrated size-configuration design optimisation, incorporating dispatch strategy as a function of energy management systems in design and optimisation, flexible demand load planning, and system analysis subject to uncertainties in renewable resources, demand load and power and cost modelling.
