Abstract

Renewable energy sources, such as wind power, face challenges owing to their erratic construction and intermittent nature, leading to the emergence of energy storage strategies to achieve grid stability and reliable electricity supplies. Determination of the correct size of energy storage devices for wind power plants is complicated. In this study, the ant colony optimization (ACO) algorithm is proposed for the best distribution/sizing of wind-generated hybrid storage capacity. Ants’ foraging habits motivate the development of wind turbines with high dependability, high efficiency and low energy storage costs. A study is conducted to confirm the practicality of the proposed method, using real data from a wind power plant to calculate the contrast between wind energy production and load consumption features, to influence the appropriate quantity for energy storage organization. The study demonstrates that the ACO approach provides precise and efficient solutions for determining the optimal energy distribution in wind power plants.
