Optimal bess capacity for solar-powered communication cabinets in tropical climates

PEA2 with TOPSISaims to establish an optimal placement and sizing strategy for BESSs. This solution takes into consideration uncertainties related to PV power and loads in order to get the maxi solutionto stabilize the power supply and enhance the flexibility of the energy grid. Continuous power availability ensures network uptime and service quality in remote locations, even during grid failures or low sunlight. Unlike temperate regions where seasonal variations dictate energy generation, equatorial climates present a unique set. . The optimal threshold for the maximum demand will allow commercial and industrial users to prudently invest on techno-economically sized solar PV and battery energy storage system (BESS). Energy cost minimization is selected as an objective function.
