Abstract
The increasing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from fossil fuel-based energy systems have accelerated the global push toward cleaner technologies. Bi-facial photovoltaic (BPV) panels, capable of capturing solar irradiance from both sides, have emerged as a promising solution due to their higher energy yield and comparable costs to traditional PV systems. This paper explores the integration of BPV panels into a multi-connected grid comprising nano-, micro-, and main grid layers. A stochastic optimization framework is developed to address the uncertainties of solar irradiance. The problem is formulated as a Mixed-Integer Linear Programming (MILP) model and solved using the Augmented Epsilon Con... More >
