A technical-economic investigation based on mathematical modeling, simulation, and optimization approach is employed in this research to assemble an island combined renewable energy systems (CRES) consists of solar PV/Wind/Fuel Cell (FC) of a small-scale countryside area in Egypt. The intent of the proposed island CRES is to boost the share of renewable energy in the energy mix and to study the possibility of using fuel cells as a storage/backup system instead of using battery banks. Three combinations of CRES are presented in this research to select the most optimum one. The combinations of the hybrid systems are PV/FC, PV/WT/FC, and WT/FC. The performance and the total cost of the suggested CRES were optimized using Firefly Algorithm (FA). The results obtained from the FA are compared with those obtained from the Shuffled Frog Leaping Algorithm (SFLA) and the particle swarm optimization (PSO). The selected case study area with latitude and longitude of (29.0214 N, 30.8714 E) is identified for economic viability in this work. The simulation outcomes show that the solar PV/Wind/Fuel Cell combination incorporated with an electrolyzer for hydrogen production grants the excellent performance. The proposed system is economically viable with a levelized cost of energy of 0.47 $/kWh. (C) 2019 Hydrogen Energy Publications LLC. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
