dc.description.abstractThis article explores the integration of on-grid renewable energy with battery storage to improve consumers’ comfort. Demand response (DR) programs are utilized to balance power supply and demand, offering consumers three response options: reducing consumption, shifting consumption, or utilizing on-site generation. However, these options may temporarily affect comfort. To address this, on-site generation through renewable energy integration has gained attention for its environmental and economic advantages. The study aims to demonstrate an environmentally friendly renewable integration system that resolves electrical power problems, ensures consumer comfort, and provides pollution-free energy. The proposed system primarily relies on solar panels with batteries as backup. Optimization is conducted using the HOMER software, and the system design represents a novel approach for the selected site. Simulation results indicate that the proposed approach significantly enhances consumer satisfaction and lowers energy costs in the absence of DR programs. This research presents a comprehensive analysis of the integration approach, emphasizing its benefits for consumers and the environment. By combining renewable energy integration and battery storage, it contributes to sustainable and comfortable energy solutions for consumers.
