This study explores the techno-economic feasibility of, both off-grid and ongrid,hybrid renewable energy systems for remote rural electrification inThala City, located in the highest region of Tunisia, using wind and biomassresources. Employing Hybrid Optimization of Multiple Energy Resourcesbased on different scenarios includes grid-connected and stand-alone configurationswith pumped storage hydropower and lead acid battery storagewhile minimizing the levelized cost of energy, the net present cost, andgreenhouse gas emissions. The optimal configuration wind/biomass/pumped-hydro storage/Converter grid-connected, minimizes the levelizedcost of energy (LCOE) and net present cost (NPC), resulting in a cost of501,540 US$ and LCOE of 0.042 US$/kWh. Notably, 7% of electricity isgenerated from olive mill waste, 69% from wind turbines, and 24% is purchasedfrom the grid. This hybrid system emits 342 tons/year of CO2, 76%less than a grid-alone system, contributing to an annual CO2 reduction of1000 tons.
