Considering the rapidly evolving microgrid technology and the increasing complexity associated with integrating renewable energy sources, innovative approaches to energy management are crucial for ensuring sustainability and efficiency. This paper presents a novel Fuzzy Logic-Based Particle Swarm Optimization (FLB-PSO) technique to enhance the performance of hybrid energy management systems. The proposed FLB-PSO algorithm effectively addresses the challenge of balancing exploration and exploitation in optimization problems, thereby enhancing convergence speed and solution accuracy with robustness across diverse and complex scenarios. By leveraging the adaptability of fuzzy logic to adjust PSO parameters dynamically, the method optimizes the allocation and utilization of diverse energy resources within a grid-connected microgrid. Under fixed grid tariffs, the investigation demonstrates that FLB-PSO achieves grid power purchase and battery degradation costs of $1935.07 and $49.93, respectively, compared to $2159.67 and $61.43 for the traditional PSO. This results in an optimal cost of $1985.00 for FLB-PSO, leading to a cost saving of $236.09 compared to the $2221.10 of PSO. Furthermore, under dynamic grid tariffs, FLB-PSO incurs grid power purchase and battery degradation costs of $2359.20 and $64.66, respectively, in contrast to $2606.47 and $54.61 for PSO. The optimal cost for FLB-PSO is $2423.86, representing a cost reduction of $237.23 compared to the $2661.08 of PSO. The FLB-PSO algorithm proficiently manages energy sources while addressing complexities associated with battery storage degradation. Overall, the FLB-PSO algorithm outperforms traditional PSO in terms of robustness to system dynamics, convergence rate, operational cost reduction, and improved energy efficiency.
