Given the operational capability of the total RE supply and the time-dependent demand rate from various appliances, and also given the recovery ratio of the electricity due to storage and discharge cycle, a mathematical programming approach is established for the analysis and design of the off-grid HPS. A CTM (condensed transshipment model) is first proposed, and the problem of targeting and analysis of the HPS problem is formulated as a MILP (mixed-integer linear programming) model. The CTM-based MILP formulation is then extended to the ETM (expanded transshipment model), where further detailed examination such as allocating the power sources to demands is included and is also expressed as a mixed-integer linear programming model, for providing more detailed source-sink matching information. An illustrative case study taken from Ref. [1] is studied to demonstrate the proposed transshipment models for elucidation of the hybrid power system. ? 2013 Elsevier Ltd.Hybrid power systemsMathematical programmingMILP (mixed-integer linear programming)Pinch analysisTransshipment model[SDGs]SDG7Energy management; Energy resources; Mathematical programming; Discharge cycles; Hybrid power systems; Mixed integer linear programming; Operational capabilities; Pinch analysis; Renewable electricity; Time-dependent demand; Transshipment models; Linear programming; design; electrical power; linear programing; numerical model; power plant; renewable resource; resource allocationjournal article10.1016/j.energy.2013.11.0212-s2.0-84892968383https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84892968383&doi=10.1016%2fj.energy.2013.11.021&partnerID=40&md5=79e49e853cdf68a5a8cb409f84a32687
