Abstract
The demand for electricity is increasing due to
environmental concerns, and economic benefits, leading to a
shift towards renewable energy sources. However, the
intermittent nature of renewables makes forecasting difficult.
Microgrids can help integrate small-scale renewable energy
sources, energy storage systems, and non-renewable sources to
address this challenge. Demand varies based on factors like
time, location, season, climate, and resource availability.
The primary aim of this research is to offer a thorough
analysis of the latest advancements in isolated Alternating
current (AC) microgrids, with a focus on discussing Energy
Management System (EMS) strategies. Specifically, the study
emphasizes the integration of hybrid Renewable Energy
Resources (RERs) with Energy Storage Systems (ESSs).
Additionally, the paper presents potential research directions
and future trends in this field.
