Role of optimization techniques in microgrid energy management systems—A review

Expeditious urbanization, population growth, and technological advancements in the past decade have significantly impacted the rise of energy demand across the world. Mitigation of environmental impacts and socio-economic benefits associated with the renewable energy systems advocate the higher integration of the distributed energy systems into the conventional electricity grids. However, the rise of renewable energy generation increases the intermittent and stochastic nature of the energy management problem significantly. Therefore, an optimal energy management technique is required to achieve a high level of system reliability and operational efficiency. A state-of-the-art systematic review of the different…
