Integrated techno-economic-environmental design of off-grid microgrid model for rural power supply in India

Pawan Kumar Kushwaha, Chayan Bhattacharjee · 2022 · Journal of Information and Optimization Sciences

Summary. This paper designs an off-grid microgrid system for rural Indian villages using solar, wind, methanol, and diesel generators combined with battery storage. The researchers optimized the system across technical, economic, and environmental metrics using a slime mould algorithm. The hybrid PV-wind-methanol-diesel configuration achieved the best balance of power reliability, cost, and emissions compared to other combinations.
