Renewable-based microgrids' energy management using smart deep learning techniques: Realistic digital twin case

Qinghui Li et al.

Summary: A novel demand response program (DRP) has been proposed for renewable-based microgrids (MGs) in this research study, which considers the high penetration of tidal units and solar energy as important and prevalent renewable resources. The use of a multi-objective problem (MOP) structure is a promising solution to reduce operating costs and reduce the risk of failure in electrical power transmission. An innovative heuristic solution derived from the Grey Wolf optimization algorithm is proposed to resolve the complexities and nonlinearity of the problem without compromising precision. This paper also develops a deep learning model using generative adversarial networks (GAN) to accurately forecast the power generation of tidal and solar agents considering the unpredictability of solar irradiance.
