A Smart Grid-Based Energy Management Framework for Integrating Wave Energy into Coastal Power Systems

The increasing demand for sustainable energy has accelerated the integration of renewable sources into power systems, particularly in coastal regions. Wave energy, as a highly intermittent and location-dependent resource, presents challenges for stable grid operation and effective energy management. This paper proposes a smart grid-based energy management framework for integrating wave energy into coastal power systems. The framework combines wave energy conversion, energy storage, and intelligent control strategies to ensure reliable and optimized power delivery. A conceptual MATLAB/Simulink model is developed to demonstrate the framework, including power output, voltage regulation, and battery state-of-charge under varying wave conditions. The simulation results indicate that the proposed framework enhances system reliability, maintains voltage stability, and effectively manages energy storage, demonstrating its potential for practical implementation in coastal smart grids. The study contributes a novel and scalable approach to integrating wave energy into renewable-based smart grids, offering insights for energy planners and engineers aiming to improve both reliability and efficiency.
