Conclusion - BESS sizing problem
The size of BESS can be decided by the technical operation requirements
Intelligent operation of BESS can reduce the operation cost of microgrids
The optimal sizing can be decided based on the network planning studies and economic analysis
The location of microgrids can significantly affect sizing
