Hybrid energy irrigation system compared to conventional energy: a systematic review

Abstract

This research is a systematic review of the irrigation system with hybrid energy compared to conventional energy, between 2015 and 2022. The main objective is to evaluate the effects of the irrigation system activated with hybrid photovoltaic - wind energy compared to conventional energy for water supply in agricultural areas, explained on energy saving, CO2 reduction, and irrigation of agricultural areas. The methodology used is based on the Prisma 2020 Declaration, Scopus, Google Scholar, and Redalyc databases were used, finding 20 articles; the results demonstrate the importance of the use of new emerging technologies such as IoT, Artificial Intelligence, among others, optimizing the proper use of water resources in irrigation for agricultural areas, however, renewable energies, such as hybrids, must be incorporated; which applies in countries such as India, China, Italy, Hungary, Colombia, Brazil among others. It concludes with the benefits of hybrid energies compared to conventional ones since it does not pollute the environment, apply emerging technologies, and rationally use water for irrigation systems and food production.
