Abstract

An optimal renewable electricity system for Busan Asiad Main Stadium (Bams), one of the largest stadiums in Busan, South Korea, was proposed using a hybrid renewable electricity system. The simulations were examined using the "hybrid optimization of multiple energy resources" (Homer) software. The suggested optimized system consists of a photovoltaic array, wind turbines, batteries, and a converter. Assuming a 3% interest rate, the cost of electricity produced is $0.585/kWh and 100% of the electricity is renewable energy. The simulation results can be used as a baseline for establishing Bams as one of the most economic and eco-friendly stadiums in South Korea by providing improved understanding of the potential of planning renewable electricity facilities for Bams.
