For renewable energy sources to replace fossil fuels, large scale storage is required and thermal batteries have been identified as a commercially viable option. In this study, 3.2 kg prototype (0.82 kWhth) of the limestone-based CaCO3-Al2O3 (16.7 wt%) thermochemical system was investigated near 900 °C in three different configurations: (i) CaCO3 thermally cycled between 850 during carbonation ...

in this paper a comprehensive approach is presented to improve power swings damping based on direct lyapunov method. the approach combines superconducting magnetic energy storage (smes) system with static synchronous compensator (statcom). considering the energy absorption/injection ability of smes, in transient states the combination exchanges both active and reactive powers with power system....

The idea of a microgrid is created by utilizing more diverse ac or dc distributed generation (DG) sources along with an energy storage system (ESS) and loads. The most efficient and reliable selection of ac and dc microgrids is a hybrid ac/dc microgrid. The hybrid microgrid largely overcomes the shortcomings of standalone ac or dc microgrids. A bidirectional interlinking converter (BIC) is util...
