An analytical method for sizing energy storage in microgrid systems to maximize renewable consumption and minimize unused storage capacity

This paper presents a novel analytical method to optimally size energy storage in microgrid systems. The method has fast calculation speeds, calculates the exact optimal, and handles non-linear models. The method first constructs a temporal storage profile of stored energy, based on how storage char...
