This paper presents a study on the retired EV(electrical vehicle) battery in hybrid PV-Wind-Retired Battery microgrid system. An optimal control theory based algorithm is proposed to determine the optimal application of the battery pack for a residential house equipped with a roof-top PV system and a wind turbine. The main goal of this algorithm is to low the cost of energy purchased from the main grid and maximize the profits for selling energy generated by photovoltaic arrays and wind turbine.

Micropower optimization model is used in this study to design renewable energy-based micro grid system: solar-biomass hybrid system for the electrification of the city of Sharjah. The principal objective is to explore the available renewable resources in Sharjah and to determine the optimal configuration to meet the desired electric loads of the city. The hybrid system consists of electrical loads, solar resources, biomass resources, and system components such as solar photovoltaic, biogas generators, biomass power, battery and converters. Input information on the primary loads, solar and biomass resource availability, technology options, components cost, constraints, and controls are determined. Hourly simulations with sensitive analysis were performed to calculate the energy to and from each component to design the most favorable renewable energy-based system. The optimized results of the alternative renewable energy-based hybrid systems with different levels of contributions by renewable resources are presented in this paper taking into account the technology costs, energy resource availability and the efficiency of the renewable energy system.

This paper presents a study on the the retired EV(electrical vehicle) battery in residential microgrid. Firstly, an optimal control theory based algorithm is proposed to determine the optimal application of the battery pack for a residential house equipped with a roof-top PV system. This first goal of this algorithm is to minimize yearly operation cost of this battery-PV system. The second goal of this algorithm is to optimize the size of the PV-pannel in the system.The household load is modeled using probabilistic method in the Energy Management Strategy(EMS) to extend its applicable range.
