Electrical Energy Storage (EES) systems store electricity and convert it back to electrical energy when needed. 1 Batteries are one of the most common forms of electrical energy storage.
In recent years, the decrease in the initial investment costs of PV systems and battery storage technologies has been a key factor in the viability of solar microgrids in
Distributed energy resources (DERs): small-scale and localized electricity generators connected to the distribution system (e.g., rooftop solar arrays, wind turbines, battery storage). Microgrid
Initially, the K-means clustering method is employed to analyze 1 year of load and renewable generation data, generating four typical scenarios to represent varying conditions of
In recent years, the decrease in the initial investment costs of PV systems and battery storage technologies has been a key factor in the viability of solar microgrids in
