The limitation of this study is that it has not generalised all the localities in Chad. Also, hybrid photovoltaic/wind systems have not been studied. This is because although there are wind potentials in the Sahara part of Chad, however, it is insignificant in other parts of the country, especially the southern part which is more populated.
