Abstract With rising demand of energy crisis, the extension of the grid, only with the non-renewable energy sources, has resulted to an end. As a result, the engineers from energy and power generation sector have become conscious for searching an alternate option, which includes the renewable source of energy like solar, wind, small hydro, geothermal, biomass, and ocean as economic, sustainable, and atmosphere pleasant alternative for the conventional source of energies. The inconsistencies in the accessibility of renewable sources every time throughout the year have led to a great expansion in the field of hybrid renewable energy system (HRES). In recent years, several researches have been reported on architecture, operation, and optimization of HRES in response to rising demands. This paper presents an analytical review of various issues related to HRES-based power generation. An overview of different architectures, performances, and reliabilities of hybrid energy system taking optimization into consideration has been presented. Reliability optimization adopted and reported in the studies which include sizing, cost, net present value, etc., of the system components is reviewed. Various software tools that enable evaluation and optimization of performance, reliability, and other parameters for hybrid system configurations are discussed in detail. The challenges, accessibility, and domain of future research in terms of optimization have also been identified.

Introduction In the global energy scenario, India is presently the world’s third-largest energy consumer and fourth-biggest economy in terms of purchasing power parity (PPP) [1, 2]. In the year 2017, the total primary energy supply meet by coal is 44.3% compared to 31.1% by oil and natural gas. Hydel and nuclear energy meet 1.4% and 1.1%, respectively. Natural gas meets up 5.8% of our energy needs in 2017 [3]. Researches are going on to find means and ways to reduce the level to a particular limit which the planet can afford. A study from world energy demand shows that the demand for energy will rise up to 62% by 2035 from 53% in 2011 [4, 5]. Nowadays, renewable energy projects are extended on large scale; hence, different renewable technologies are also suited to remote and rural areas and developing countries. To satisfy the increasing energy demand, the best use of resources available around us is the only possible option [6]. It is seen from various researches that renewable energy has the ability to uplift the poorest nations to high levels of prosperity. In addition to that, renewable energy is much more efficient which leads to a significant reduction in non-renewable energy re
