This paper validates the optimal design and techno-economic feasibility of hybrid renewable energy system (HRES) for rural area electrifying applications. Plan to a design of improved performance electrification system through village owned renewable resources, such as solar irradiations, wind speed and bio mass etc. The selected HRE system has to meet out electrical needs in optimum performance manner. Hear conducted a case study on remote village Korkadu is located in Union Territory of Pondicherry, India. The expected village demand of 179.32 Kwh/day and peak of 19.56 Kw was met with proposed HRE structure, which is consists of solar PV array, wind turbine, Bio mass power generator and Battery backup system in effectively. Load growth of the village was predicted through artificial neural network (ANN-BP) feed-back propagation and Levenberg-Marguardt (LM) data training optimum technique. Encounter the optimum performance of different HRE configuration was evaluated over by HOMER software. System's economic dispatch was analysed through various dispatch strategy and come across the proposing companied dispatch strategy has more economical and performance benefits as total NPC of system as INR 1.21 million, one unit energy generation cost as INR 13.71 and annual battery throughput as 36.648 KWh/yr. This study also expresses the comparison analysis between proposed HRES structure performance with basic utility grid extension. The consequence of the proposed work shows the HRES in remote location can be a cost effective solution for sustainable development of rural regions.
