Open full text 26 citations

Abstract

Renewable energy based Distributed Generation (DG) in form of PV power system can tackle the growing demand of depletion of electrical energy resources and the increasing prices of oil. Smart grid is the innovation of recent infrastructure grid and DG is an essential part of it. The Moroccan government has also made significant changes to its renewable energy policy to promote clean energy. The aim of this paper is to show the way to implement the concept of simulating and optimizing the real time of dynamic data in university Abdelmalek Essaâdi with HOMER as platform software. According to the simulation result, it is seen that microgrid implementation in Morocco is beneficial with regards to both optimum solution and sensitivity analysis.
