An algorithm that can correctly map all system parameters to the algorithm variables.
Parameters include, ac voltage and frequency, dc voltage, battery state of charge, solar energy, wind energy.
Basically all parameters that are found in a wind-solar farm
Dear Ishmael Mwangi
There are a lot of smart algorithms used to solve such problems
as like:
Genetic algorithms
PSO
Fuzzy
Ant colony
Good luck
Dear Ishmael Mwangi
First of all, you should define the optimization problem. After that, by considering the target you can use an evolutionary algorithm to solve the optimization problem. Based on my experience, POS works very well.

Most studies of optimal sizes of sources that use multiobjective optimization approaches combine the economic, technical and environmental criteria into a single objective function. In this context, different methods have been used. Queuing multi-objective optimization (QMO) [53], intelligent Pareto-search genetic algorithms (IPSGA) [23], and evolutionary algorithms (EA) [47] present the most recent and the popular multi-objective methods used to optimize the source sizing in the microgrid. In the case of single objective optimization approaches, researchers usually choose the cost as an objective function and take the reliability of electrical energy as the only constraint. In some works, linear programming techniques are used to resolve the sizing problem [52].
Genetic algorithms (GA), hybrid grey wolf optimizer (HGWO) [34], particle swarm optimization (PSO) [9], tabu search (TS) [56], and artificial bee colony (ABC) [6] are metaheuristic and heuristic algorithms that have also been frequently used for solving source sizing problem.
You can develop your own model based on energy balance or use available software packages like HOMER. I developed a model to account for solar and wind generation and the demand to find the available energy for energy storage systems. Also, I modeled the energy storage system based on short-term and long-term demands. I believe these publications on wind/solar/storage system design would be helpful for your research:
Thesis Assessment of Renewable Energy Based Micro-Grids for Small Communities
.
I was working in a similar problem and SQP works good form me. Indeed, this method is already implemented in Python in the scipy library.
You can use different algorithms and compare them. I recommend applying the PSO, Crow search algorithm, ALO and WOA.
