The Stable and regular supply of electricity is very germane to the economic development of any nation and insufficient generation has affected the regular, constant, reliable supply of electricity and other failures in the system. To reduce and eliminate these issues, reliability assessment and assets management of distribution systems with high penetration of solar energy is proposed using a Monte Carlo-based recurrent neural network. The background of reliability assessment and assets management in power system, review of some past works on reliability and assets management, research gaps, state of art of the research work, reliability worth, reliability of power system network, the procedure for Monte Carlo based recurrent neural network for reliability assessment and conclusion were presented. The network would be modeled with high penetration solar pv, distributed generators (DG) and heavy duty generators and the reliability assessment would be carried out using a recurrent neural network under different scenario with Monte Carlo. The recurrent neural network (RNN) is chosen because it can give a predictive result in sequential data, recurrent neural network will take care of excessive use of the memory by Monte Carlo because it has internal memory itself and it can also learn from any pattern and adapt to it and give result without any functioning equation. The bulkiness of using only probabilistic methods such as Monte Carlo and Markov etc. which required making many simplifying assumptions to reduce to a manageable size is solved by this proposed method and whale optimization algorithm would be carried out.
