in this paper, a hybrid solid oxide fuel cell (sofc) and micro gas turbine (mgt) power system is parametrically studied to evaluate the effect of different operating conditions. the sofc/mgt power system includes sofc reactor, combustion chamber, compressor and turbine units, and two heat exchangers. the effects of fuel utilization, temperature, and pressure are assessed on performance of the h...

Background: In this study, a general model of a hybrid off-grid energy system is developed, which can be adjusted to reflect real conditions in order to achieve economical and ecological optimisation of off-grid energy systems. Methods: Using linear programming methods in the General Algebraic Modeling System (GAMS) environment, the optimal configuration of the electrical power supply system fo...

Modern storage systems are becoming more complex, combining different storage technologies with different behaviors. Performance alone is not enough to characterize storage systems: energy efficiency, durability, and more are becoming equally important. We posit that one must evaluate storage systems from a monetary cost perspective as well as performance. We believe that cost should consider t...

This paper presents a novel strategy, optimized by genetic algorithms, to control stand-alone hybrid renewable electrical systems with hydrogen storage. The strategy optimizes the control of the hybrid system minimizing the total cost throughout its lifetime. The optimized hybrid system can be composed of renewable sources (wind, PV and hydro), batteries, fuel cell, AC generator, and electrolyz...

The management of energy in distribution networks has been gathering attention recent years. simultaneous control generation and demand is crucial for achieving savings can further lower pricing. work aims to develop a scheme hybrid microgrid that provide stability the bus voltage effectively manage power flow. Solar current trend renewable sources (RES). There surge installation solar PV syste...

This paper presents a parallel energy-sharing control strategy for the application of fuel cell hybrid vehicles (FCHVs). The hybrid source discussed consists of a fuel cells (FCs) generator and energy storage units (ESUs) which composed by the battery and ultracapacitor (UC) modules. A direct current (DC) bus is used to interface between the energy sources and the electric vehicles (EV) propuls...

In this paper the authors have developed an isolated network for very low voltage (VLV) decentralized energy production and storage based on renewable energy (hybrid system: photovoltaic and wind). An energy based model of stand-alone hybrid photovoltaic-wind generating system is presented, using bond graph approach. An equivalent average modeling of a hybrid photovoltaic-wind generating system...
