Energy Management for Smart GDS with Hybrid AC/DC Microgrid and Renewable Energy: SCO-GBDT Approach.

This manuscript proposes a hybrid method for energy management (EM) of a solar photovoltaic (PV) hybrid microgrid (MG) for the residential distribution system (DS). The proposed approach integrates the single candidate optimizer algorithm (SCOA), and gradient boost decision tree algorithm (GBDT), called the SCOA-GBDT algorithm. The main contribution of this manuscript is to (a) effectively achieve battery storage, solar PV, and loads to improve energy savings and lessen the loss of conversion; (b) effectively handle solar photovoltaic, battery storage, and loads to recognize cost-effective power distribution using the proposed technique; and (c) effectively handle weak photovoltaic power prevalent in the DC side of MG by an auxiliary-battery arrangement to preserve energy. The proposed energy management strategy lowers the conversion losses in the residential DS. Here, the dc loads are provided by a solar photovoltaic, the utility-grid provides the AC loads, and an auxiliary-battery bank is considered for storing the energy. Then, the performance of the proposed technique is done in MATLAB software and is compared to different existing approaches. From the simulation outcome, it is concluded that the proposed approach reduces costs and losses compared to the existing approaches. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
