One of the classic examples of off-grid PV applications is a 1 kW PV array at the Van Geet Off-Grid home [3] in Colorado. In this example, the cost of extending the electrical power grid 1.5 miles to reach the building was estimated as US$ 100 000; therefore utilizing an amorphous Silicon PV array, with a maximum power point tracking (MPPT) controller, 42.7

When a fault occurs on the power grid, the PCS needs to be switched from an on-grid mode to an off-grid mode to supply power to the local load. This is referred to as on/off-grid switching of the PCS for short.
Nanogrids are expected to play a significant role in managing the ever-increasing distributed renewable energy sources. If an off-grid nanogrid can supply fully-charged batteries to a battery swapping station (BSS) serving regional electric vehicles (EVs), it will help establish a structure for implementing renewable-energy-to-vehicle systems. A capacity planning problem
