Summary The environmental threat and rising fuel prices are the two major challenges faced by the utility to provide clean and affordable electricity to the consumers. The change in government policies provides assistance for large‐scale deployment of Distributed Energy Resource (DER) like rooftop solar PV, but at the same time, the intermittent nature of this renewable‐based DER produce adverse effects on utility stability and its economic viability. The concept of virtual power plant (VPP) can be a possible solution for these issues through coordination and scheduling of DER, storage, and flexible load, which results in secure operation with high penetration of DER and utility peak‐load reduction. In this paper, the Distributed Energy Resources Customer Adoption Model (DER‐CAM) is utilized, which is a Mixed Integer Linear Programming‐based decision‐making tool. For determining the potential of VPP and its implications, a case study of Punjab State Power Corporation Limited (PSPCL), a state power utility, is studied. The main objectives of the paper are cost minimization, peak‐load reduction, and reliability enhancement. The DER‐CAM model simulates different load profiles, and the optimal investment solution is determined, which ensures monetary benefits for both consumer and utility.

“…According to data collected by the survey, the village has sufficient livestock comprising ~800 cattle and buffaloes, 100 pigs, and 100 poultry. One cow produces 5.5 kg of cow dung daily, and it has been estimated that 1 kg of cow dung has the capacity to produce 0.6 to 0.8 m 3 of biogas, which can produce 1.5 kWh of electric energy . Therefore, ~4400 kg of animal manure having a potential to generate 6600 kWh of electrical energy is available in the village just from cow dung.…”

Burning of crop residues aggravates already existing pollution caused by coal‐based thermal power plants in most of the developing countries such as India. Crop residue consists mainly of organic compounds and can be efficiently utilized to produce biogas in a sustainable way through anaerobic digestion. This study proposes a microgrid (MG) system for the effective utilization of available renewable resources and reliable rural electrification. The detailed techno‐economic analysis of the design of a solar and biomass‐based MG system was performed. Two MG systems, namely, MG‐A having photovoltaic (PV), biomass‐based generating units, connected to an unreliable grid, and MG‐B having PV, biomass, and battery units working in the isolated mode, were designed for reliable rural electrification. Different performance‐assessment parameters such as generation responses, component cost, project feasibility, emissions, inflation rate, and fuel prices were taken into account during the investigation. This study concludes that a grid‐connected MG system is more capable of providing reliable electricity with reduced energy costs than an islanded MG system. In addition, the proposed MG power system helps to mitigate pollutant emission into the atmosphere by effectively utilizing the abundant biomass resources.

Renewable energy sources have emerged as an alternative to meet the growing demand for energy, mitigate climate change, and contribute to sustainable development. The integration of these systems is carried out in a distributed manner via microgrid systems; this provides a set of technological solutions that allows information exchange between the consumers and the distributed generation centers, which implies that they need to be managed optimally. Energy management in microgrids is defined as an information and control system that provides the necessary functionality, which ensures that both the generation and distribution systems supply energy at minimal operational costs. This paper presents a literature review of energy management in microgrid systems using renewable energies, along with a comparative analysis of the different optimization objectives, constraints, solution approaches, and simulation tools applied to both the interconnected and isolated microgrids. To manage the intermittent nature of renewable energy, energy storage technology is considered to be an attractive option due to increased technological maturity, energy density, and capability of providing grid services such as frequency response. Finally, future directions on predictive modeling mainly for energy storage systems are also proposed.
