Summary:An islanded microgrid (IMG) having renewable energy sources (RES), dispatchable sources and battery energy storage (BES) is an effective approach to supply the electricity in remote areas. The reliable operation of IMG is quite complex and challenging task, due to uncertain behaviour of RES, loads and energy bid. In this paper, an IMG is simulated to maximise the revenue considering a dynamic optimisation objective subjected to various constraints of system components for two different cases, i.e. considering the stationary and the dynamic energy bid. Artificial bee colony (ABC) and its variants based on global best (GABC), and global and personal best with asynchronous scaling factors (GPSABC) are implemented and the obtained results are also compared with the existing optimisation techniques. Results of GPSABC improve the revenues and offers better accuracy and stability parameters. Further, the effect on revenue results with different ramp rates of diesel generators is described through GPSABC.
