HOMER is one of the best used software for this optimum planning purpose due to its wide range of analyzing capacity and advanced prediction capability based on the sensitivity of the variables (sensitivity analysis). So optimum planning of the resources to be included in a hybrid system and a determination of a perfect working strategy is very important. One negative approach about green energy that, it is unpredictable. Greenhouse those are far from locality and offshore aqua farms, can make most efficient use of green energy harvesting. 2015 15(4):308–325.Renewable energy harvesting is the best option as future energy source and there is no doubt about that.
