Abstract: The characteristic parameters of renewable energy sources (RESs) are changes over time under changing operating conditions. Therefore, the accuracy of the model is important in order to establish appropriate control and operating plans for the stable operation of such systems. Determining the parameters of RESs and creating an accurate model of them is an inevitable reality and plays an important role in the success of system modeling. Many methods have been used to determine these parameters in the literature. Furthermore, optimization algorithms are now considered to be among the most significant approaches for resolving problems pertaining to system parameter extraction in many scientific areas. In the study, this parameter extraction is done by a new optimization method called stochastic fractal search algorithm (FDB-NSM-SFS-OBLs), which includes natural survivor updating (NSM) and fitness distance balance (FDB) guiding mechanisms, and opposite based learning (OBL) methods. The performance of the proposed FDB-NSM-SFS-OBL algorithm has been tested in two different experimental studies. In the first experimental study, the proposed approach is tested on CEC2020 benchmark test functions and the algorithm structure containing the best OBL approach is determined using nonparametric Wilcoxon and Friedman statistical analysis methods. The second experimental study is carried out with the proposed optimization algorithm to estimate the parameters of the photovoltaic cell used in the modeling, which is the building block of photovoltaic panels used in renewable energy systems, proton-exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) that is another renewable energy source, and Li-Ion battery used as a backup power unit. The FDB-NSM-SFS-OBL algorithm, which is used both in the CEC2020 benchmark test functions and in determining the parameters of photovoltaic (PV) cells, PEMFC and Li-Ion batteries, performed better in searching and finding the global solution point during the optimization process.
