Maximizing micro-grid energy output with modified chaos grasshopper algorithms.

This study presents a Modified version of Chaos Grasshopper Algorithm (MCGA) as a solution to the Techno-Economic Energy Management Strategy (TEMS) problem in microgrids. Our main contribution is the optimization of parameters to minimize the overall daily electricity price in an integrated clean energy micro-grid, incorporating fuel cell, battery storage, and photovoltaic systems. Through comparative simulations with established methods (HOMER, GAMS, GWO, and MILPA), we demonstrate the superiority of our proposed strategy. The results reveal that MCGA surpasses these methods, yielding significantly improved optimal solutions for the overall daily electricity price. Notably, the MCGA approach exhibits high precision, flexibility, and adaptability to power prices and environmental constraints, leading to accurate and flexible solutions. Thus, our proposed approach offers a promising and effective solution for the TEMS problem in microgrids, with the potential to greatly enhance microgrid performance.
