Solar energy storage (SES) systems offer a viable solution by capturing and storing excess solar energy during peak generation periods for later use, thereby enhancing grid resilience
In response to these challenges, this paper investigates the integration of distributed photovoltaic (PV) systems and energy storage solutions within 5G networks. The proposed approach
Proposed scenarios are analyzed in which the storage occurs in a distributed way, with an ESS connected to each PV-DG, or in a concentrated way, with a single ESS connected to the
