“…Under the strong sea‐state operating condition, the produced energy has fast dynamics that could not be supplied into the PEM electrolyzer, due to the recommendations of the safe operation provided by the system manufacturer. In our previous study , , an auxiliary energy storage system (LiFePO 4 battery system) has been used for covering these fast dynamics.…”

“…The detailed EMS strategy proposed in has the objective of balancing the energy between the generation of the tidal converter and the residential load demand of an island consisting a marine current‐hydrogen active power generation system. The proposed EMS converts the surplus energy, when the generation is higher than the consumption, into hydrogen by switching an MW scale PEM electrolyzer on.…”

This paper presents the modeling and energy management system (EMS) of a hybrid marine‐hydrogen power generation system. The proposed system aims to convert the static nature of the tidal energy into an active system by using a hydrogen energy storage system. The system of the tidal energy converter (TEC) considers the fixed pitch direct drive technology while the hydrogen system consists of 1.0 MW (megawatt) proton exchange membrane electrolyzer. A MATLAB/Simulink based model has been developed for studying and evaluating the effectiveness of the proposed EMS. The developed model depends on scaling up a 50 W proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolyzer model to 1 MW scale by adapting the model parameters for providing the same key performance indicators (KPIs). The EMS aims to convert all the TEC generated energy into hydrogen with considering the efficient and safe operation of the different system components. Thus, the loss minimization (efficiency maximization) of the tidal turbine generator is integrated as one of the EMS goals to evaluate its effect on hydrogen production. The generator of the TEC is controlled by two different strategies for estimating the surplus hydrogen that could be produced. The strategies are the maximum torque/ampere and the loss minimization.

“…Second, hydrogen could undergo clean and direct conversion processes to produce power, heat or electricity [87,90,91]. Third, hydrogen could be employed alongside fuel cells in power units to complement storage and direct power production applications [92][93][94]. These are the main motivations for including hydrogen in this study, coupled with its future potentials to compete favorably well with natural gas as a final source of energy for different applications.…”

Impacts of Renewable Energy Resources on Effectiveness of Grid-Integrated Systems: Succinct Review of Current Challenges and Potential Solution Strategies

et al. 2020

This study is aimed at a succinct review of practical impacts of grid integration of renewable energy systems on effectiveness of power networks, as well as often employed state-of-the-art solution strategies. The renewable energy resources focused on include solar energy, wind energy, biomass energy and geothermal energy, as well as renewable hydrogen/fuel cells, which, although not classified purely as renewable resources, are a famous energy carrier vital for future energy sustainability. Although several world energy outlooks have suggested that the renewable resources available worldwide are sufficient to satisfy global energy needs in multiples of thousands, the different challenges often associated with practical exploitation have made this assertion an illusion to date. Thus, more research efforts are required to synthesize the nature of these challenges as well as viable solution strategies, hence, the need for this review study. First, brief overviews are provided for each of the studied renewable energy sources. Next, challenges and solution strategies associated with each of them at generation phase are discussed, with reference to power grid integration. Thereafter, challenges and common solution strategies at the grid/electrical interface are discussed for each of the renewable resources. Finally, expert opinions are provided, comprising a number of aphorisms deducible from the review study, which reveal knowledge gaps in the field and potential roadmap for future research. In particular, these opinions include the essential roles that renewable hydrogen will play in future energy systems; the need for multi-sectoral coupling, specifically by promoting electric vehicle usage and integration with renewable-based power grids; the need for cheaper energy storage devices, attainable possibly by using abandoned electric vehicle batteries for electrical storage, and by further development of advanced thermal energy storage systems (overviews of state-of-the-art thermal and electrochemical energy storage are also provided); amongst others.
