Abstract
Renewable energy hybrid system is one of the most promising, economical, and reliable options for electrifying rural areas. Hybrid energy systems are being utilized for minimizing usage of fossil fuels to reduce environmental effects. But analysis of hybrid system is quite complex; therefore, it requires software tools for design, analyze, and optimization of software. Motive of the paper is to introduce various major software tools required for design, analyze, and optimization of hybrid system. The software discussed are HOMER, RET Screen, PVsyst, iHOGA.
