A stochastic optimization approach to the design and operation

A hybrid renewable energy system (HRES) is used to produce and distribute energy for a specific region. It is also called a microgrid when compared to a conventional wide-area synchronous grid (macro grid). The interest in HRESs originates from the goal of meeting the energy needs in remote areas with limited energy availability, such as islands.
