    How can a microgrid improve the reliability of solar PV?

    In order to overcome the problems associated with the intermittency of solar PV and enhance the reliability, energy storage systems like batteries and/or backup systems like diesel generators are commonly included in the microgrids [11, 12].

    What is a PV-based microgrid?

    The name implies the principle component in a PV-based microgrid is the solar PV system. However, the generated output power of a PV system is dependent on the weather condition, that is, solar irradiance and temperature; and the intermittency in the solar irradiance causes fluctuations in the generated output power of the solar PV system.
