The energy generation and power consuming loads at Brass LNG facility located in Brass Island, Bayelsa State Nigeria were analyzed and compared with expected demand changes and means of minimizing cost and greenhouse gas emission were also proffered with wind and solar energy penetration into the overall power mix . The wind and solar hybrid power generation system reduced the fuel consumption, greenhouse gas emission and noise pollution by the generators and turbine by relieving some of the power plants or reducing their sizes. Economic cost benefit analysis and recovery periods projections made showed that system is economically viable and technically feasible with low recovery time.
