[PDF Version]Energy storage systems (ESS) are crucial in microgrids (MGs) with penetration, ensuring efficient energy management, mitigating intermittent generation, and maintaining grid stability. However, evaluating ESS effectiveness requires comprehensive metrics that consider both technical and economic aspects.
To mitigate this challenge, an adaptive robust optimization approach tailored for a hybrid hydrogen battery energy storage system (HBESS) operating within a microgrid is proposed, with a focus on efficient state-of-charge (SoC) planning to minimize microgrid expenses.
Isolated microgrids can be of any size depending on the power loads. In this sense, MGs are made up of an interconnected group of distributed energy resources (DER), including grouping battery energy storage systems (BESS) and loads.
A microgrid is a small power system constructed to manage Distributed Generators (DGs) from renewable energy and load clusters. The microgrid that connects to the bulk power system is called to be in “on-grid mode”, and when it disconnects from the bulk power system in an emergency, it is called to be in “islanded mode”.
Authors to whom correspondence should be addressed. In standalone microgrids, the Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) is a popular energy storage technology. Because of renewable energy generation sources such as PV and Wind Turbine (WT), the output power of a microgrid varies greatly, which can reduce the BESS lifetime.
MGs are a set of decentralized and intelligent energy distribution networks, which possess specific characteristics critical to the evolution of energy systems . There exist several definitions of microgrid in the scientific literature, , , .

The Inflation Reduction Act incentivizes large-scale battery storage projects. And California regulations now require energy storage for newly constructed commercial buildings. The same microgrid-based BESS can serve either or both of these use cases.
Another use case for battery storage on microgrids is aggregating BESS as a virtual power plant (VPP) to correct imbalances in the utility grid. At the grid level, when the supply of power from renewables temporarily drops, utilities need to respond quickly to maintain equilibrium between supply and demand and stabilize the grid frequency.
Volatile energy markets, utility grid disruptions, and the rising awareness of climate change have created new energy challenges that require innovative answers. As a result, many organizations are embracing microgrids as a solution to the mounting problems.
Lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries are the most highly developed option in size, performance, and cost. A broad ecosystem of manufacturers, system integrators, and complete system providers supports Li-ion technology. However, the vendors best equipped to bring value to microgrids bring the right components to each project.
To reduce energy costs, a facility with a microgrid can leverage a BESS to store power from variable renewable energy (VRE) sources, such as solar or wind, and then substitute the stored energy for utility power when utility rates are highest in an attempt to arbitrage.
