This study presents an advanced hybrid energy management system (EMS) designed for isolated microgrids, aiming to optimize the integration of renewable energy sources with backup systems to enhance energy efficiency and ensure a stable power supply. The proposed EMS incorporates solar photovoltaic (PV) and wind turbine (WT) generation systems, coupled with a battery energy storage system (BESS) for energy storage and management and a microturbine (MT) as a backup solution during low generation or peak demand periods. Maximum power point tracking (MPPT) is implemented for the PV and WT systems, with additional control mechanisms such as pitch angle, tip speed ratio (TSR) for wind power, and a proportional-integral (PI) controller for battery and microturbine management. To optimize EMS operations, a novel hybrid optimization algorithm, the JSO-GJO (Jellyfish Search and Golden Jackal hybrid Optimization), is applied and benchmarked against Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), Bacterial Foraging Optimization (BFO), Artificial Bee Colony (ABC), Grey Wolf Optimization (GWO), and Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA). Comparative analysis indicates that the JSO-GJO algorithm achieves the highest energy efficiency of 99.20%, minimizes power losses to 0.116 kW, maximizes annual energy production at 421,847.82 kWh, and reduces total annual costs to USD 50,617,477.51. These findings demonstrate the superiority of the JSO-GJO algorithm, establishing it as a highly effective solution for optimizing hybrid isolated EMS in renewable energy applications.
