globally excessive consumption of hydrocarbon fuel in transport sector is a serious threat to the civilization due to paucity of fuel in future. also this growing use of vehicles for transport is contributing about 70% of total air pollution and causing environmental and ecological imbalances. thus the worldwide fast depletion of conventional energy resources and impact of emissions on environm...

To address the rising electricity demand and greenhouse gas concentration in environment, considerable effort is being carried out across globe on installing operating renewable energy sources. However, production affected by diurnal seasonal variability. ensure that electric grid remains reliable resilient even for high penetration of renewables into grid, various types storage systems are inv...

Air compressor is the critical part of a Compressed Air Energy Storage (CAES) system. Efficient and fast compression of air from ambient to a pressure ratio of 200-300 is a challenging problem due to the trade-off between efficiency and power density. Compression efficiency is mainly affected by the amount of heat transfer between the air and its surrounding during the compression. One way to i...

This paper is based on the improvement of power quality (PQ) using fuel cell and fuzzy controller. By proposed controller, in grid system especially micro connected with non- linear unbalanced load enhanced. The configuration combined hybrid arrangement photovoltaic ([PV) wind energy conversion (WECS), (FC) including compressed air storage (CAES) where management controlled by distributed shari...

In the present paper, D-CAES storage systems are compared with Sodium–Sulfur (Na–S) and Lithium-ion (Li-ion) based ones on basis of Levelized Cost Storage (LCOS). Utility-scale characterized by a rated power in range 5–20 MW capacity tens/hundreds megawatt-hours have been addressed. Analyses carried out varying key parameters such as installed power, charge/discharge time periods, price electri...
