INDEPENDENT ELECTRICITY SUPPLY SYSTEMS FOR TOURISM IN HARD-ACCESSIBLE AREAS IN THE FUNCTION OF SUSTAINABLE SPATIAL PLANNING
Abstract
Ecotourism is becoming dominant, especially after global disturbances such as the pandemic. In addition to the health segment, it must include the cognitive and educational segments, so attractions are an important element in creating eco-products in tourism. Whether they are natural or artificial attractions, they are often located in hard-to-reach areas and their function cannot be maximally valorized without basic infrastructure. The development and implementation of a system for the production of electricity from unlimited solar energy are important for the development of sustainable tourism. The paper aims to point out the importance of setting up independent electricity supply systems, including off-grid and hybrid setups, and to offer practical solutions for achieving energy self-sufficiency. Hybrid power systems (HPS) are especially important to rationalize costs. Fully autonomous power systems in inaccessible areas where access to the public network is difficult or completely disabled are crucial.
