A grid connected hybrid generation system (HGS) consisting of wind energy conversion System (WECS)/Photo voltaic (PV) System/solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) is designed and simulated by using Matlab/Simulink. SOFC is the replacement of battery, attached to produce the clean energy when these renewable energy sources are unable to produce required amount of electric power. A controller is used to regulate the flow of H<sub>2 </sub>through the valveto the SOFC and the rest amount of H<sub>2 </sub>is stored in storage tank. Also, an operational control strategy (OCS) is developed to utilize maximum amount of power of PV to the required load and rest amount of power is coming from wind to fulfill the load demand. Hence, the electrolyzer is supplied by the wind power to convert the water in to H<sub>2</sub> and oxygen. Also the power quality factor (PQF) analysis is exercised to measure the quality of power transmission.
Renewable energy generations have been employed throughout the world in order to meet the increasing load demand. It is a pollution free and abundantly accessible. The generation cost has been reduced because of more research advancement. Photovoltaic (PV) can’t generate throughout the day due to weather condition. In order to maintain the continuity of power generation a hybrid renewable generation system (HRGS) concept has been considered in this research work. HRGS is an integration of more than one renewable energy which consists of PV, wind, solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC), an auxiliary unit (AU). AU is used as a backup generation which can generate power when all the renewable energy fails to generate. AU may be of diesel generator (DG) or super capacitor. This paper discusses the various parts of HRGS and its comparison. Furthermore, its impact of energy management so as to deliver the energy to the grid in a continuous and reliable manner. Therefore, a detail study of different component of HRGS & renewable energy has been highlighted which will be helpful for the new researchers for advancement of power generation and its control strategy of energy management connected to the grid.
This paper represents a hybrid energy system (HES) consisting of photovoltaic (PV), Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC), electrolyzer system and a storage tank. In this proposed system a fuel cell controller is used where a PID controller is utilized to control the flow of hydrogen (H<sub>2</sub>) through the valve to the SOFC to fulfill the load requirement. In this model a supervisory controller is used to regulate the whole system according to load requirement. So, when PV power is more than load requirement, then PV power fulfill the required load demand as well as the extra power of PV is utilized to generate the hydrogen (H<sub>2</sub>) by the help of electrolyzer, further this hydrogen is used as a fuel of SOFC. Also in this proposed model different types of faults are considered and verified their effect on the load as well as in distribution network. The computer simulations are done for the purpose technology and verified its effectiveness. Hence the appropriate results are obtained.
This paper presents the detailed modeling of various components of a grid connected hybrid energy system (HES) consisting of a photovoltaic (PV) system, a solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC), an electrolyzer and a hydrogen storage tank with a power flow controller. Also, a valve controlled by the proposed controller decides how much amount of fuel is consumed by fuel cell according to the load demand. In this paper fuel cell is used instead of battery bank because fuel cell is free from pollution. The control and power management strategies are also developed. When the PV power is sufficient then it can fulfill the load demand as well as feeds the extra power to the electrolyzer. By using the electrolyzer, the hydrogen is generated from the water and stored in storage tank and this hydrogen act as a fuel to SOFC. If the availability of the power from the PV system cannot fulfill the load demand, then the fuel cell fulfills the required load demand. The SOFC takes required amount of hydrogen as fuel, which is controlled by the PID controller through a valve. Effectiveness of this technology is verified by the help of computer simulations in MATLAB/SIMULINK environment under various loading conditions and promising results are obtained.
<p>Where sun irradiation is not continuous throughout the day, photovoltaic (PV) cells are used to supply solar power to the grid. A suitable power management plan is required to provide a steady power supply to the grid. The hybrid renewable generation system (HRGS) interconnected to the grid is the subject of this study, which provides a revolutionary power management method and control strategy. PV devices, a battery storage unit (BSU) charged by electricity generated from solar energy, and an auxiliary unit make up the HRGS concept (AU). Maximum power point tracking (MPPT) uses an improved perturb and observe (P&O) method to track maximal energy from solar irradiation. The peculiarity of this approach is that it uses a modified MPPT algorithm to handle power management throughout the process, allowing it to manage continuous power delivery to the grid based on load demand. It is capable of working under any load situation. The action of an L-C filter is utilized to decrease the total harmonic distortion (THD). The HRGS scheme's performance appraisals work correctly, achieve maximum productivity, and continually managing the power provided to the grid in a satisfactory way.</p>
