Abstract

Renewable energy sources are being increasingly adopted because there is a need for alternative sources of power generation which are emission-free and environmentally friendly. These sources include solar energy, wind energy, marine energy, geothermal energy and battery storage systems. Mathematical optimization techniques have increasingly been deployed in sizing and scheduling renewable energy sources in microgrids. In this study, a systematic review of various energy sources, mathematical optimization techniques and applications of mathematical optimization techniques in renewable energy-powered microgrid is presented. It is observed from the review that mathematical optimization techniques have been used with great success in this domain. The review concludes with research gaps for future exploration.
