Offshore ship charging station (OSCS) projects can help to address the current demand for electric ships for ocean voyages to a large extent. The proper selection of the energy source for power generation is a key part of the OSCS project. To select the optimal renewable energy for OSCS with many difficulties such as the ambiguity of the decision-making environment, the differences in group assessment information, and the conflict and compensation between criteria, this paper proposed a fuzzy multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) framework.

Article Synopsis
  • Microgrids and energy communities are being increasingly utilized, but rural areas face challenges due to lack of information infrastructure, causing operational blind spots in distribution networks.
  • A backward neural network (BNN) is proposed as a control method in multi-feeder microgrid systems to improve load sharing and voltage management, adapting to communication issues that typically affect traditional control.
  • The BNN approach demonstrates greater effectiveness than conventional methods by optimizing load distribution and maintaining voltage stability, particularly under conditions of communication failure.
