Abstract :
In this paper, the environmental impact evaluation was examined on an independently operated microgrid. For the evaluation of environmental impact, we measured the amount of CO2 exhausted from the micro grid when the installation capacity of photovoltaic and of battery was changed. The amount of CO2 emission was compared by equipment with different amount of the introduction. The capacity of battery installation that achieves the least amount of the CO2 emission was examined.
