This section presents an analysis of the BESS wear cost (omega _{text {BESS},t}) related to microgrid sizing. This cost of accounts for the BESS degradation due to cycling energy through the storage system. It quantifies the cumulative degradation incurred by each kWh provided by the battery until its lifetime energy throughput is depleted.

Battery energy storage systems (BESS) plays a crucial role in microgrids by storing excess energy produced during low-demand periods for use during peak times. This helps in managing the power supply more effectively and stabilizes the microgrid during fluctuations in energy generation from alternative sources. Typical forms of energy storage
The inverter of BESS also operates in power control mode (i.e. grid-feeding), acting as the secondary power source that injects additional active and reactive power during power demand in an islanded or grid-connected microgrid. In a microgrid with multiple BESS, coordination is essential, and the proposed control model of BESS with PCS follows

In microgrid operation, one of the most vital tasks of the system control is to wisely decide between selling excess power to the local grid or charge the Battery Energy Storage System (BESS).
BESS also supports to increase the system efficiency and makes the system more economic . BESS can provide power system stability, and it also can improve the power quality. BESS has an inverter which can transform the DC voltage from the battery to the AC voltage needed for the grid or microgrid and vice versa.
The integration of Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) in microgrids provides an enabler for generation decarbonization, through the maximization of renewable share and thus the reduction of fossil fuels consumption.

Integrating a BESS within the context of a microgrid with respect to the electrical utility is often like interconnecting other DER, such as generators and PV solar farms. The PCS used for the BESS will need to comply with the same standards as solar PV inverters (such as IEEE-1547-2018).
Conclusions This research clearly indicates a significant step forward in the pursuit of enhanced grid-tied microgrid resilience through the synergistic integration of renewable energy resources and data-driven methodologies, which can be useful for any microgrid, DER-based system design consisting of solar PV and battery energy storage system.
On a different note, the state of charge (SoC) of batteries constitutes a pivotal factor in augmenting the resilience of microgrids during power outages . Batteries, capable of storing surplus energy generated by solar panels and discharging it when needed, serve as a reliable source of backup power during disruptions .
During the utility-connected mode of operation, a microgrid owner can utilize DERs to opt into paid service by the utility companies. This feature commands the system to assist the utility in maintaining localized grid power quality via a direct command control sequence that the controller will receive from the utility grid operator.
The proposed system suggests a PV size of 88 kW and a battery size of 97 kWh as shown in Table 2. These sizing configurations are notably different from those obtained through HOMER Pro and REopt, highlighting the algorithm’s ability to explore alternative solutions that optimize the microgrid’s performance.
