An optimal management architecture based on digital twin for smart solar-based islands incorporating deep learning and modified particle swarm optimization

Abstract

Smart island (SI) energy management is a type of energy management system used to ensure that energy is used efficiently on islands. It is designed to reduce energy consumption and costs while also improving the sustainability of the island. Smart island energy management systems use a combination of technologies such as solar, wind, and other renewable energy sources, energy storage systems, smart meters, and advanced analytics to monitor and manage energy usage. The system can be used to provide islanders with real-time energy usage data, allowing them to make informed decisions about their energy use. Using the effects on the environment and economics of the SI as a basis for fully modeling the optimum performance of the SI in grid-connected operations, the feasibility and balance of the SI power grid are ensured. In addition, taking into account the impact of interruptible loads (IL) on SI operation costs, a power shift for IL can be performed using storage batteries in a digital twin environment. A new ecology-driven optimization algorithm has been developed that continuously adjusts migration rates with habitat suitability indexes of normalized individuals and adds a differential perturbation to the migration operator of the migration process. The enhanced particle swarm optimization algorithm has been implemented as the SI optimization dispatching algorithm. In order to have a precise prediction of the renewable energy sources, their output power is predicted using the recurrent neural network (RNN) deep learning model. Based on the simulation outcomes, it is evident that the suggested power dispatching model could greatly decrease the overall price of the system by implementing the advanced and effective algorithm and model presented in the study.
