Abstract
A study has focused on significant improvements in reliability indices at deploying the photovoltaic and battery energy storage at each home within a community. Technical impact renewable energy on grid operation with a rise in level of PV penetration can cause the creation of market barriers that would ultimately limit further penetration level of renewable energy. The grid integration of wind power will certainly be helpful, integrating, the sizable capacity of solar power that are going to present a different set of challenges and opportunities. Variability of these resources have posed several challenges in integrating them into power systems. Researchers are still developing novel solar technologies and substantial R&D are being made to achieve parity with retail electricity costs in coming future. A combination of energy storage and PV can improve the reliability of power supply in home in case the outage occurs.
