This study investigates and compares the various combinations of renewable energies (solar, wind) storage technologies (battery, pumped hydro storage, hybrid storage) for an off-grid power supply system. Four configurations (i.e., single RE source system, double system) based on two scenarios (self-discharge equal to 0% 1%) are considered, their operational performance is compared analyzed. The...

In this paper, an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) assisted cooperative communication system is studied, wherein a source transmits information to the destination through an energy harvesting decode-and-forward UAV. It is assumed that the UAV can freely move in between the source-destination pair to set up line of sight communications with the both nodes. Since the battery of the UAV may be limite...

Photovoltaic water pumping systems (PVWPS) are a promising solution to improve domestic access in low-income rural areas. It is challenging, however, make them more affordable for the local communities. We develop here comparative methodology assess relevant features of both widely employed PVWPS architecture with tank storage, and hardly used battery bank instead storage. The quantitative comp...

With respect to the limitations of fossil energy resources, different types of electric vehicles (EVs) are developed as suitable alternatives. Lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery cells play an extremely important role in EVs due to their unique features. But they need a thermal management system (TMS) to maintain their surface temperature uniformity and avoid them from thermal runaways. In the current...

Range anxiety and battery cycle life are two major factors which restrict the development of electric vehicles. Battery degradation can be reduced by adding supercapacitors to create a Hybrid Energy Storage System. This paper proposes a systematic approach to configure the hybrid energy storage system and quantifies the battery degradation for electric vehicles when using supercapacitors. A con...

M any features of modern portable electronic devices—such as high-speed processors, colorful displays, opti-cal/magnetic storage drives, and wireless network interfaces—carry a significant energy cost. However, advances in battery technology have not kept pace with rapidly growing energy demands. Most laptops, handheld PCs, and cell phones use rechargeable electrochemical batteries—typically, l...

This paper, presents a suitable control system to manage energy in distributed power generation system with a Battery Energy Storage Station and fuel cell. First, proper Dynamic Shape Modeling is prepared. Second, control system is proposed which is based on Classic Controller. This model is educated with Genetic Algorithm and particle swarm optimization. The proposed strategy is compared with ...

In this paper, the design and implementation of a permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) based wind energy conversion system battery bank storages are connected to utility grid. It has phase locked loop (PLL) control strategy as it provides for single-phase grid inverter with constant dc-link voltage. The is interfaced through diode bridge rectifier (DBR) dc-dc boost converter, single vo...

Large-scale battery storage solutions have received wide interest as being one of the options to promote renewable energy (RE) penetration. The profitability storages is affected by bidding strategy adopted operator and highly dependent on operation rest system. Nevertheless, coordination between system has not been investigated in literature yet. This paper provides a holistic hourly techno-ec...
