Energy storage system (ESS) plays an essential role in microgrids (MGs). By strategically scheduling the charging/discharging states of ESS, the operational cost of MG can be reduced. In this paper, we consider ESS charging and discharging as decision-making behavior to achieve the goal of minimizing operation cost of MG. The ESS scheduling
