Abstract The objective of this research is to design and model a hybrid system using photovoltaic (PV) and battery, integrated with grid system using hybrid optimization model for electric renewables (HOMER) software. The model is tested using three different battery types: lead acid (LA), vanadium redox (VR), and zinc bromine (ZnBr) flow batteries. It has already been mandated that 10 per cent of the smart cities energy requirement should come from solar energy. Solar rooftops can go a long way in providing a clean and green living environment in these smart cities. Solar energy can be harnessed by installing solar panels that can reduce our dependency on non-renewable sources of energy, but due to the intermittent nature of solar energy and its variability, the need for battery energy storage becomes mandatory to stabilize the operation of such hybrid systems and to store the surplus energy produced and supply it at a time of insufficiency. These battery types are compared in terms of system sizing, economy, technical performance, and environmental stability. A case study of an Institutional area of New Delhi is carried out to compare the performance of individual batteries. The results demonstrate that the hybrid system using ZnBr batteries is the most favourable choice. Using this configuration, the economic parameters, including net present cost (NPC) and levelized cost of energy (LCOE), are found to be lowest and emissions into the atmosphere are found to be optimum. © Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2020.
