This article pioneers innovative strides at the crossroads of technology and inclusivity, focusing on creating supportive environments for individuals with autism. It introduces a groundbreaking approach to bolstering cybersecurity within smart microgrids (SGs) deployed in autism-friendly educational settings. It addresses integrating IoT security protocols and sustainable energy management within autism-friendly schools. It aims to ensure a reliable and efficient energy supply while safeguarding sensitive IoT systems used to support educational and sensory needs of students with autism. Through a meticulously crafted four-layered monitoring architecture tailored to SGs in educational institutions catering to autistic children, this research addresses emerging threats and evaluates the impact of advanced two-axis solar tracking systems on PV panel performance within these grids. Central to this endeavor is the integration of blockchain technology to secure data exchange among renewable resource management, smart metering, and SGs, fostering a secure and efficient energy ecosystem. The study showcases exceptional results from the implementation of SGs at the Naama solar energy center, achieving a remarkable annual production of 55374 MWh. Noteworthy metrics, particularly in June, highlight robust power generation and solar radiation under optimal conditions, with a performance rate of 0.79. The annual loss diagram reveals that ≈ 16.2% of losses stem from module inefficiencies, and 5.2% originate from converter losses. By delving into IoT security, renewable energy management, and inclusive education, this article presents a multifaceted approach that promises transformative advancements in interconnected domains. Integrating the efficient P&O MPPT technique in the solar installation at our autism-friendly school enhances system reliability and energy efficiency, while also supporting educational goals and environmental sustainability, positively impacting the specialized learning environment.
