The global energy landscape is rapidly shifting toward cleaner, lower-carbon electricity generation, necessitating a transition to alternate energy sources. Hydrogen, particularly green hydrogen, looks to be a significant solution for facilitating this transformation, as it is produced by water electrolysis with renewable energy sources such as solar irradiations, wind speed, and biomass residuals. Traditional energy systems are costly and produce energy slowly due to unpredictability in resource supply. To address this challenge, this work provides a novel technique that integrates a multi-renewable energy system using multi objective optimization algorithm to meets the machine learning-based forecasted load model. Several forecasting models, including Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA), Random Forest and Long Short-Term Memory Recurrent Neural Network (LSTM-RNN), are assessed for develop the statistical metrics values such as RMSE, MAE, and MAPE. The selected Non-Sorting Moth Flame Optimization (NSMFO) algorithm demonstrates technological prowess in efficiently achieving global optimization, particularly when handling multiple objective functions. This integrated method shows enormous promise in technological, economic, and environmental terms, emphasizing its ability to promote energy sustainability targets.
