Renewable energy sources such as wind and solar power exhibit strong stochasticity and volatility, resulting in decreased power supply security and sustainability. A strategically optimized hybrid renewable energy system (HRES) is crucial for maintaining stable load operations and achieving sustainable energy development. This paper introduces an energy optimization management model for an independent HRES consisting of wind turbines, photovoltaic systems, diesel generators, and energy storage units. Operational strategies focus on energy storage-led loads following diesel generator-led load prioritizations. The model aims to optimize objectives to include economic, environmental, and power supply reliability indices. A dynamic adaptive parameter approach balances the parameters of the objective function at various instances. The optimal capacity allocation of the model is solved using the improved gray wolf optimization (IGWO) algorithm. This approach incorporates the golden sine strategy, the levy flight strategy, and the dynamic inverse learning strategy into the traditional GWO algorithm. Analyzing different test functions, evaluation metrics, and actual load data indicates that the proposed algorithm excels in global optimization capabilities and search speeds. The model significantly reduces the economic and environmental costs of the HRES microgrids and improves the sustainable development of renewable energy in various scenarios.

To achieve the goal of allocating the generation capacity of isolated renewable energy system microgrids in a stable, economical, and clean manner, an optimization model considering economic costs, environmental protection, and power supply reliability was established. Compared with the normalization of fixed weight coefficients, a dynamic adaptive parameter method was used in this study to balance the weights of economic, environmental, and stability factors in the objective function. The Levy Flight Strategy, Golden Sine Strategy, and Dynamic Inverse Learning Strategy were embedded to increase algorithm performance for optimization and simulation to address issues such as local optima, slow convergence speed, and lack of diversity commonly associated with traditional Grey Wolf Optimization algorithm. The case analysis shows that the Improved Grey Wolf Optimization algorithm effectively reduces the economic cost of microgrids, enhances environmental performance, and improves system reliability.

The offshore oil and gas industry is under increasing pressure to reduce carbon emissions while maintaining energy reliability. Offshore oil and gas platforms (OOGPs) face significant challenges in integrating low‐carbon operations with their energy systems. This study introduces an optimized scheduling approach for offshore microintegrated energy system (OMIES) that incorporates a hybrid energy storage system, including a floating power‐to‐gas associated gas storage (FP2G‐AGS) module, to address the intermittency of renewable energy sources. An economic optimization model is formulated, accounting for carbon emissions, operational costs, and the status of gas turbine generator sets. To solve the complex optimization problem, this study develops a hybrid chaotic local search and particle swarm optimization (CLPSO) algorithm. The CLPSO algorithm synergizes the global search ability of PSO with the local refinement of chaotic local search, enhancing the convergence to optimal solutions. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed CLPSO algorithm effectively achieves optimal solutions within a range of 48.2–51.7. Case studies validate the model’s capability to promote new energy integration, reduce operational costs, and decrease CO₂ emissions across various scenarios. This research significantly contributes to achieving low‐carbon operations on OOGPs and promotes the sustainable development of marine resources.
