Introduction An excellent work requires a tremendous amount of planning and preparation. This paper will outline the plan for the electrification of Baron Village, located deep into the Empty Quarter desert, south of Saudi Arabia. The said report will give a brief information about Baron Village. However, the main bulk of the report focuses on the proposal to build a stand alone renewable energy source, a combination of a solar power – wind turbine system that will provide a stable energy source for the 100 families that are part of Baron Village. The rationale for the said project was explained by engineers who worked in remote locations, men and women who emphasised that “Electricity is a medium for connecting energy sources with our wishes- to perform work, fulfil a need, or satisfy a want” (Toepfer, 2010, p.7). The villagers had struggled to survive in an unforgiving landscape and the provision of a reliable source of electric power will undoubtedly change their lives forever. Hybrid Energy and Alternative Energy Sources In the 20 th century man perfected the use of fossil fuel as a reliable energy source. There was a time when it was abundant and cheap. It led to the development of new technologies. Most importantly electricity was made available to areas that have no access to natural resources such as those that could provide hydroelectric power or geothermal power. However, in the past few decades fossil fuel has become increasingly expensive. Moreover, it was discovered that carbon dioxide and other harmful by-products of the refining and use of fossil fuel has led to what is now known as global warming. Fig.1. The Empty Quarter (Cole, 2010, p.11). It is therefore important to find an alternative energy source. In the case of the inhabitants of Baron Village the alternative energy source must be cheap and clean. The wind and the sun in the Empty Quarter desert is ideal for a solar and wind energy system. A small-scale wind turbine can be installed that can power a small generator and the energy will be collected by a battery that is being re-charged on a daily basis. The same thing can be said of the solar panels that will collect energy and transform that energy into electrical power. Another possible solution is the use of hybrid system. According to experts in this field “hybrid energy is an integration of renewable resources such as the solar, wind turbines, biomass, geothermal and the micro-hydro energy with the fossil fuel powered generators” (Gupta & Sharma, 2008, p.1). In this configuration, a “hybrid energy systems consist of at least two energy systems one of it is the fossil fuel system that guarantee the stability of the power production” (Gupta & Sharma, 2008, p.1). This is a an excellent idea especially when looking at the goal of providing a stable energy source. But if one will consider the location – the remoteness of the village and the problems with the road networks – then it would be best to simply devise something that is easy to maintain. In order to achieve a level of dependability an integrated solar and wind power generator can be utilised in Baron Village. Development Proposal Any area in the world has its own natural re
