Through the combination of several sources, hybrid energy is highlighted among researchers for contributing to a more sustainable society

Even though there has always been a wide variety of natural resources on Earth, only now, with the rapid and advanced development of studies and technologies regarding sustainable energy generation, is it possible to create techniques to take advantage of all this energy diversity in a hybrid way. Therefore, the hybridization of a society is hypothetically proportional to the degree of technological development of this society.

In this case, hybridization is about energy efficiency, such as exploring the complementarity of the most varied sources, through technologies that revolutionize the sector and are capable of recognizing the best sustainable combination, in order to optimize yield. Thus, in a situation where there is wind, it is the turn of wind energy; in cases where there is no wind, another source automatically comes in to replace production.

As stated by Ricardo Lagares, from PUC Rio, when Exam website, through artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms, it is possible to establish sustainability as a priority focus, as long as the system works in a completely safe way for this purpose. In this way, energy generation will work sustainably and will contribute to the development of a more appropriate model, not only for humanity, but for the planet as a whole, marking a true evolution.

According to Lagares, for the near future, over a period of years and decades, it is important for us to be prepared as a society to receive an energy system that includes hybrid generation, distribution and transmission.

How will this hybrid energy system work?

In the generation, several sources will be connected together in order to promote a “flat” energy in the wire. As for hybrid distribution, there will be a market with more freedom and proactivity, with many players, supported by distributed generation. In the transmission, in turn, the hybridization process will also occur, taking into account the studies and preliminary indications of Nikola Tesla and, currently, of several researchers who are still studying innovative methods of energy transmission.

Why choose hybridization?

Hybrid energy conveys the idea of ​​balance. According to great thinkers of history, this would be the most positive and healthy way of conduct for humanity or any other individual. Within science, balance would be the origin of the stability of chemical and physical systems. Therefore, using a hybrid energy chain through technology and resources in a sustainable way guarantees a better future for all. Currently, it is already possible to connect various thermal, solar, wind, natural gas, hydroelectric, biomass, energy from waste, and other sources, promoting vast options of possible combinations, according to the location and context in which it is inserted. Thus, a more sustainable, safe and reliable energy matrix is ​​formed.
