In this paper, the authors have introduced a two-step method using MILP to size batteries along with DERs in a microgrid. The optimal objectives are to minimize simulation time and total net present cost (TNPC) of the microgrid at minimum unmet deferrable load (UDL) and optimally sizing batteries al...
