Abstract The modern epoch of our existing generation witnesses an increased demand of electrical load in our diurnal lives. But this growing demand has caused a dearth of conventional resources utilized for the generation of electricity and as a consequence there has been a considerable rise in the electricity price and frequency of blackouts and cuts have increased substantially. Green Energy is an alternative form of energy among which Solar Energy is one such prevalent energy resource. A Solar Photovoltaic module is utilized to convert the solar energy into electrical energy without any increase in the pollution level. But the integration of this Solar PV system directly with the load won't give an optimum utilization of the energy. Thus it requires several electronics interface concerted with a separate battery energy system in between the source and the load to efficiently supply the load requirement at the customer's end. The PV system can be realized in a micro grid interface where the distributed generators, energy sources, energy storage devices and loads can operate as a single and independent controllable system. This entire system can be made to work in both islanded and grid connected modes. This paper focuses on the optimal energy management system for maximum utilization of the solar energy while being connected in either of the modes. The grid interfacing is done in such a way as to provide the required load in an efficient manner. The system is analyzed under different conditions like when the Solar energy is received in full radiations and the load requirement is varied below or above the base load demand. The battery system is incorporated to produce the extra load required during the islanded condition depending on its State of Charge. A particular battery control has been implemented in this case for the battery scheduling process which accordingly determines the charging and discharging of the battery. A flowchart has been developed and the model is tested and simulated in MATLAB/SIMULINK under different load conditions for different cases. © 2019 IEEE.
