probabilistic circumstances. The proposed Ideal REEM,
regardless of RERs, prompts a better voltage profile.
Figure 12 further shows that RERs essentially cut down
on power losses (kW). Figure 13A portrays the PV yield
power and Figure 13B shows the WT yield power, with
both fluctuating with PV illumination and wind speed
