Abstract
This paper proposes predictive energy management and control system (PEMCS) for PVÂ +Â BESS MG tied to a weak PEG with periodic load shedding. Twenty-four hours (24Â h) forecasts of load demand and PV potential with PEG load shedding schedule and BESS status are used as decision variables. The proposed PEMCS reduces PV energy (PVE) wastage due to curtailment, increases PV proportion locally and into PEG for PEG support, decreases unnecessary charging from the PEG, and increases savings for owner-consumer. The proposed scheme is simple, effective, and realistic, and accounts for errors in the forecasts. Results show increased proportions of PVE for both consumers and PEG, energy cost saving for consumers, and enhances weak PEG operational reliability.
