Optimal Controllers and Configurations of 100% PV and Energy Storage Systems for a Microgrid: The Case Study of a Small Town in Jordan

Renewable energy systems such as Photovoltaic (PV) have become one of the best options for supplying electricity at distribution network level. This is mainly because PV system sustainable, environmentally friendly, and a low-cost form energy. The intermittent unpredictable nature renewable sources which leads to mismatch between power generation load demand challenge having 100% networks. Therefore, an Energy Storage System (ESS) can be significant solution overcome these challenges improve reliability network. In Jordan, sector facing number due high energy-import dependency, costs, inadequate electrification rural areas. this paper, optimal integration ESS designed developed in Jordan. economic performance proposed under different optimization algorithms operation scenarios are investigated. Metaheuristic algorithms, namely: Golden Ratio Optimization Method (GROM) Particle Swarm (PSO) employed find configurations integrated microgrid.
