N2 - This paper presents the optimal sizing of a solar photovoltaic (SPV), a wind turbine generator (WTG) and a battery-based autonomous hybrid renewable energy system (HRES) for a dairy farm.The multi-objective design and operational (sizing) optimisation problem integrate an appliance-scheduling strategy under the time of use demand response (TOU-DR) program to optimally schedule the load at the demand side. The objective function is to minimise the cost of energy (COE) of the system while satisfying all load demand constraints. The critical indicators of the technical and economic performance of the system are loss of power supply probability (LPSP) and the net present cost (NPC), respectively. The Advanced Interactive Multidimensional Modelling System (AIMMs) outer approximation (AOA) solver in AIMMS was used to formulate and solve the optimisation problem. A cost savings of R45,938.96 for the annualised cost was achieved due to appliance scheduling which indicates the benefit of integrating appliance-scheduling strategy using the TOU-DR program.
