Abstract. In this paper, a practical methodological framework is proposed for the optimal planning of an isolated rural microgrid considering distributed energy resources (DERs) such as photovoltaic systems (PV), run-of-river micro-hydro (MH) systems, battery energy storage systems (BESS) to supply energy to isolated rural microgrids.
Microgrids are an effective means to provide power to urban and rural communities. Microgrid planning must anticipate both the system''s economic feasibility and long-term stability.
