description High growth of the population and developed industries, on the one hand, increased the demanded energy considerably. Growth of the fossil fuel-based power generation, on the other hand, has high environmental effects. Accordingly, renewable energy sources are mainly interested in the recent years as clean resources. These sources also can be economical cases in long term. Nevertheless, their intermittent feature is a main drawback. Integration of these resources with the rest of the grid can increase their advantages and tackle their main drawbacks. In the present work, a novel programming method is proposed for energy management and optimization of operational expenses over a grid-connected microgrid (MG). The considered MG contains various renewable resources. Some uncertainties should be considered in the integration of renewable resources with the grid, which can affect the system performance. Main uncertain parameters are studied in this paper such as predicted values for green power sources, maximum capacity for fuel cells (FCs), energy storage sources (ESSs), maximum capacity for transmission line, and also hourly loads, achieving a higher efficiency. This paper utilized fuzzy idea for presentation of mentioned uncertain parameters in the MG. Moreover, this work employed a 3-stage optimization algorithm for obtaining the best programming for the MG by considering the uncertain parameters. This paper also used a practical test system to validate the proposed method through minimizing the total cost. Additionally, a sensitivity analysis is performed to study the effects of oscillations of all components in the MG and their associated uncertainties over the obtained results.
