This article deals with the power flow control in a hybrid power system, which is composed of a fuel cell, photovoltaic system and a super capacitor. The super capacitor has been employed with an aim to ameliorate the performance of the hybrid power system. In addition, it takes into account the energy fluctuations of photovoltaic energy sources and the slow dynamic of the fuel cell. Each source is connected to a DC/DC converter and their outputs are connected to a common DC-link and they supply a DC load. Furthermore, an energy management algorithm has been carried out in order to commonly share the power between the sources and the load. The proposed energy management method shows its flexibility, and an efficient energy conditioning between different sources is guaranteed in case of multi-source system. The main originality of this work lies in the use of AC-link partial resonant DC–AC converter topology to interface hybrid system and to inject the excess of energy to the grid. In this article, the system description, the control and the modeling of DC/DC converters and the AC-link converter are provided. Finally, simulations under Matlab/Simulink are shown in order to validate the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy and the energy management algorithm. An implementation on real-time using dSpace 1104 is presented to illustrate the feasibility of the proposed control strategy.

As the energy consumption is increasing in an alarming rate and peoples and international communities are well aware of environmental protection, alternative (i.e., renewable and fuel cell based) distributed generation (DG) systems have attracted increased interest. Wind-based and photovoltaic- (PV-) based power generation are two of the most promising renewable energy technologies. Fuel cell (FC) systems also show great potential in DG applications due to their fast technological development and the merits they have, such as high efficiency, zero or low emissions (of pollutant gases), and flexible modular structure. In this work, the techno-economic feasibility study (using HOMER) of emission-free hybrid power system of solar, wind, and fuel cell power source unit for a given rural village in Ethiopia called Nifasso (latitude of 9°58′40″N and longitude of 39°50′3″E with an estimated population of 1059) that can meet the electricity demand in a sustainable manner has been studied. The main power for the hybrid system comes from the solar and wind energy while the fuel cell and rechargeable batteries are used as a secondary and primary energy back up units, respectively. We can say storage as primary and secondary based on the sequence of operation. Hence, when there is shortage, first the battery discharges to fulfill the load demand and if the battery reaches to its allowable minimum capacity, it will stop further discharging and the fuel cell will operate so as to convert the stored hydrogen into electricity. In the result, different feasible alternative solutions have been obtained with a narrow range of COE which are better than the previously studied PV-wind-Genset hybrid set ups.

Abstract-This paper proposes an energy management strategy for hybrid power system HPS which is composed of a photovoltaic generator, wind turbine, fuel cell generator and NaS battery storage device, feeding a type house. This strategy is based on Fuzzy Logic Control technique. The hybrid power system is sized to provide the energy demand of the inhabitants of the house and if there is an extra power generation, it would be sold to the grid. Using Simulink, we develop the different scenarios in order to use the fuel cell or battery during critical periods. The methodology developed was applied under the climatic conditions (wind speed, solar irradiation and temperature) measured at a site located in the northeast of Tunisia.
