The impacts of a recently launched community feed-in tariff (COMFIT) scheme on renewable energy production, with energy prices differentiated by renewable energy technology type, have not been adequately understood. The knowledge gap is addressed by applying the Hybrid Optimization Model for Electric Renewables (HOMER) decision tool to investigate the economic feasibility and effects of selected energy policy schemes on wind-biogas hybrid energy production, by talking into consideration geographic location (Greenwood, Sydney, Caribou Point), and wind turbine capacity (including 20, 35, and 50 kW). The biogas energy production component reflected a representative Nova Scotia, Canada dairy farm with 100 cows. Wind biogas hybrid energy systems were generally not economically feasible without COMFIT scheme financial incentives. Locating the hybrid energy system one km away from a utility grid increased cost of energy produced by about $0.06 per kWh. Under current government COMFIT scheme with guaranteed energy prices, economic feasibility improved relative to a base scenario, with NPV per kWh increasing from -$0.51 to $0.83 for a system with the 50 kW turbine at Caribou Point, compared with -$0.51 to -$0.14 for a similar 50 kW turbine at Sydney. Wind biogas power production was economically viable under COMFIT scheme prices only for Caribou Point. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
