The integration of battery energy storage systems (BESS) with microgrids (MG) is crucial to improve the reliability and flexibility of renewable energy sources (RES) integration. However, the reliability and regulatory policies are critical factors that affect the optimal operation of MGs in the...

Microgrids (MGs) use renewable sources to meet the growing demand for energy with increasing consumer needs and technological advancement. They operate independently as small-scale energy networks using distributed energy resources. However, the intermittent nature of renewable energy sources...
