“…Hence, economic analysis of the whole procedure is recommended to investigate the techno-economic feasibility of a microgrid consisting of PV-BESS systems [32]. As mentioned earlier, the HC of PV system for a specific power system can be defined as the amount of PV generation capacity (usually for distributed generation) integrated into the power system, above which the system's operating conditions are violated [10,[33][34][35]. The HC of PV in a network can be determined by an iterative method considering the system power factor, voltage regulation and equipment loading [33].…”

“…The HC of PV in a network can be determined by an iterative method considering the system power factor, voltage regulation and equipment loading [33]. HC of the respective network also depends on the characteristics of the network, load and generation stream As mentioned earlier, the HC of PV system for a specific power system can be defined as the amount of PV generation capacity (usually for distributed generation) integrated into the power system, above which the system's operating conditions are violated [10,[33][34][35].…”

To meet the zero-carbon electricity generation target as part of the sustainable development goals (SDG7), remote industrial microgrids worldwide are considering the uptake of more and more renewable energy resources, especially solar PV systems. Estimating the grid PV hosting capacity plays an essential role in designing and planning such microgrids. PV hosting capacity assessment determines the maximum PV capacity suitable for the grid and the appropriate electrical location for PV placement. This research reveals that conventional static criteria to assess the PV hosting capacity fail to ensure the grid’s operational robustness. It hence demands a reduction in the theoretical hosting capacity estimation to ensure grid compatible post-fault voltage and frequency recovery. Energy storage technologies, particularly fast-responsive batteries, can potentially prevent such undesirable scenarios; nevertheless, careful integration is required to ensure an affordable cost of energy. This study proposes a novel methodical techno-economic approach for an off-grid remote industrial microgrid to enhance the PV hosting capacity by integrating battery energy storage considering grid disturbance and recovery scenarios. The method has been validated in an industrial microgrid with a 2.6 MW peak demand in a ready-made garment (RMG) factory having a distinctive demand pattern and unique constraints in remote Bangladesh. According to the analysis, integrating 2.5 MW of PV capacity and a 1.2 MVA battery bank to offset existing diesel and grid consumption would result in an energy cost of BDT 14.60 per kWh (USD 0.1719 per kWh). For high PV penetration scenarios, the application of this method offers higher system robustness, and the financial analysis indicates that the industries would not only benefit from positive environmental impact but also make an economic profit.

“…During emergencies or in cases where a rapid power supply is required in response to a power supply failure, diesel generators may fail to turn ON immediately or ramp up the output as needed. Li-ion based batteries are well-proven technology to immediately take over and rapidly respond to the power requirements [15]. This study considers the energy required for the electrolysis in the Hydrogen generation plant, and the charging of the batteries would occur from the excess electricity of the microgrid, which would predominantly come from PV systems.…”

The study aims to demonstrate a standalone PV-Hydrogen-battery microgrid's technical and economic merits in a developing country. Besides having fossil fuel resources, enough renewable energy resources have been deployed in the microgrid to create a sustainable system. The primary renewable energy resource explored is the solar PV system. The diesel-powered generators are integrated to support the system stability in high PV penetration scenarios. In such cases, energy storage options are integrated to store excess electricity, provide sufficient days of autonomy, system stability and virtual inertia. Li-ion based batteries and Hydrogen have received widespread acceptance as a potential renewable energy storage solution for coping with the variability nature of renewable energy resources. In this study, the system is optimized based on the seasonal load and real-life market information. The results reveal that a diesel-PV-Hydrogen-battery microgrid is an efficient and cost-effective configuration for remote communities in Bangladesh.
