Wind-solar-diesel-storage microgrid model

Can a microgrid system be integrated with a diesel generator?

Microgrid systems, such as solar photovoltaic (PV) and wind turbine (WT), integrated with diesel generator can provide adequate energy to supply increased demands and are economically feasible for current and future use considering depletion of conventional sources.

Is capacity optimization a non-linear optimization problem in independent wind–solar–diesel–storage micro-grid?

In the independent wind–solar–diesel–storage micro-grid system, due to the strong randomness of wind resources, photovoltaic resources, and loads, its capacity optimization configuration is a typical non-linear optimization problem. Therefore, this article calculated the annual data on an hourly basis, bring it into the model to solve.

How to optimise the capacity of hybrid energy system in microgrid?

The authors in [14 - 16] used genetic algorithm to optimise the capacity of the hybrid energy system in microgrid. A simple numerical algorithm was developed and used to determine the optimal generation units capacity required for a standalone, wind, PV, and hybrid wind/PV system .

How to optimize wind–solar–diesel–storage distribution?

The optimization of wind–solar–diesel–storage distribution is studied. 1. Multi-objective function is design to minimize the cost and loss of the wind–solar–diesel–storage micro-grid, ensure the power supply rate while avoiding waste of resources. 2. A scheduling strategy is proposed to determine the output sequence of various power sources.

What is the optimal capacity configuration of isolated microgrid?

Currently, the study of the optimal capacity configuration of isolated microgrid is based primarily on annual time series data or typical day time series data, and the optimal analysis of DG and ESS capacity is performed under specific microgrid operation strategies.

What is the typical structure of isolated microgrid system?

The typical structure of the isolated microgrid system described herein is shown in Fig. 2. It includes several parts: WT, PV, ESS, diesel generator, AC/DC converter, and electric load around the microgrid. To facilitate the calculation, the efficiency of the proposed converter is 90% .
