Abstract

Renewable energy is vital for the future of the energy supply because of its properties, which include sustainability, affordability, and environmental friendliness. The low dependability of these sources is a disadvantage due to their nondeterministic and unpredictable production patterns. Utilizing several energy production sources in conjunction with energy storage and backup sources could relieve the problem of system dependability. This study recommends a hybrid microgrid that is independent of the grid and consists of primary sources of wind and solar energy production in addition to a battery and generator backup system. This is achieved through the use of dynamic decision-making algorithms, modeling, construction, and assessment, as well as thirteen distinct strategies for the electrical supply of residential units. Under the scenario to use 24% renewable energies, the consumption of fossil fuel is 1,1 liters per day, and the yearly production energy of the total renewable energy conversion system is comparable to 1,697 kWh with a net present value of $553.68. By increasing the renewable energy factor to 54 percent, the consumption of fossil fuel is reduced to 0.69 liters, and the annual production energy is increased to 1,652 kWh. Consumer energy management with a renewable energy factor of 100 percent, an annual energy usage of 1,933 kWh, and a net present value of -$379.
