Abstract

Due to today's rapid socioeconomic expansion and environmental concerns, many modern civilizations are interested in researching alternate energy options, notably renewable ones. In this sense, a Micro-grid (MG) of multiple renewable energy sources can help achieve the intended goals while delivering electricity more efficiently, affordably, and safely. This paper presents an expert multi-objective Glowworm Swarm Optimization Algorithm (GSO) for optimal operation of a typical MG with Renewable Energy Sources (RESs). The objective is to minimize both the overall operating cost and the net emission. The proposed algorithm is tested on a typical MG, and its superior performance is compared to those from other evolutionary algorithms.
