Modeling and Optimization of Microgrid Considering Emissions

In this paper, the optimum design for a microgrid system is proposed. The microgrid is independent from thepower grid, operating in a stand-alone state. Wind, solar,diesel generators and batteries are distributed resources supplying power to the microgrid. The design is optimized on both cost considerations and performance of the power system. Sensitivity analysis is performed in order to explore the effect of uncertainties. Case study and simulation results are presented and discussed in this paper.
