Microgrids usually employ distributed energy resources such as wind turbines, solar photovoltaic modules, etc. When multiple distributed generation resources with different features are used in microgrids, managing these resources becomes an important problem. The generated power of solar photovoltaic modules and wind turbines used in microgrids is constantly changing with solar irradiation and wind speed. Due to this impermanent and uncertain nature of renewable energy resources, generally, energy storage systems are employed in microgrid systems. To control the distributed energy resources and energy storage units and sustain the supply and demand balance within the microgrid and provide sustainable and reliable energy to the loads, energy management systems are used. Many methods are used to realize and optimize energy management in microgrids. This review article provides a comparative and critical analysis of the energy management systems used in microgrids. The energy management system can be tailored for different purposes, which are also discussed in detail. Additionally, various uncertainty measurement methods are summarized to manage the variability and intermittency of renewable energy sources and load demand. Finally, some thoughts about potential future directions and practical applications are given.

In the dynamic landscape of renewable energies, microgrid systems emerge as a promising avenue for fostering sustainable local energy generation. However, the effective management of energy resources holds the key to unlocking their full potential. This study assumes the task of creating a multi-objective optimization algorithm for microgrid energy management. At its core, the algorithm places a premium on seamlessly integrating renewable energy sources and orchestrating efficient storage coordination. Leveraging the prowess of a multi-agent system, it allocates and utilizes energy resources. Through the combination of renewable sources, storage mechanisms, and variable loads, the algorithm promotes energy efficiency and ensures a steady power supply. This transformative solution is underscored by the algorithm's remarkable performance in practical simulations and validations across diverse microgrid scenarios, offering a prevue into the future of sustainable energy utilization.

“…However, the dynamic and decentralized nature of microgrids poses complexities in managing energy supply and demand. To address these challenges, Hamidi, Raihani, and Bouattane [79] proposed a multi-agent system as an intelligent solution that enables autonomous decision making within the microgrid ecosystem. By utilizing the proposed system, the microgrid can optimize energy allocation, storage, and distribution in real time.…”

The concept of sustainability, with a focus on energy, has emerged as a central tenet in addressing the mounting global challenges of environmental degradation and resource depletion. Indicators of sustainability focusing on energy are crucial tools used to assess and monitor progress toward achieving a more sustainable energy system. These indicators provide valuable insights into the environmental, social, and economic dimensions of energy practices and their long-term impacts. By analyzing and understanding these indicators, policymakers, businesses, and communities can make informed decisions, formulate effective policies, and steer their efforts toward a more sustainable energy future. These indicators serve as navigational guides, steering the world toward energy practices that support both present needs and the well-being of future generations. In this paper, the concept of sustainability and measurement indexes used are reviewed, focusing on energy factors. The focus of the discussion presented here is related to an assessment of the possibilities for improving energy efficiency and evaluating the indicators that are used to measure whether the desired levels of sustainability are being achieved.
