“…The options are many (batteries, ultracapacitors, flywheels, counterweights, heat tanks, ...), but each has limitations, so optimal load management is extremely important. To mitigate the storage problem, several hybrid solutions have been proposed in the literature, in which different primary sources and different storage systems are incorporated into a single system (HRES [1, [10][11][12][13][14]17,20,24,25,27,31,37,40,[42][43][44][45][46][47][48]). The most immediate advantage derives from the fact that the different sources are not correlated with each other, therefore in a multi-source system the intervals during which there is no production are shorter, and therefore the necessary capacity can be reduced.…”

The electrification of rural areas of the planet has become one of the greatest challenges for sustainability. In fact, it would be the key to guaranteeing development for the poorest of the planet, but from which most of the raw material for the food market derives. The paradigm of centralized production is not applicable in these territories, because the distribution network would involve unjustifiable costs. For this reason, studies have multiplied to ensure the energy supply, especially electricity, of off-grid utilities, to guarantee energy autonomy while reducing the dependence on specialist assistance for the management of the system. In this work, a hybrid system (HRES) is proposed that combines the exploitation of solar energy with that of the wind through the use of static devices, in order to improve the system's availability and limit the cost of operation and maintenance.

“…However, the intermittent and random nature of RERs by way of being weather dependent is a cause of concern and consequently the reliability of the RER-based energy systems is on the lower side. In the recent times, hybrid renewable energy systems (HRESs), comprising two or more different RERs and energy storage systems (ESSs), have emerged to be a promising technology and have got huge potential to fulfil electricity demands of remote regions especially where grid access is not available [3,4]. In grid-independent HRESs, the ESSs become necessary to take care of the unpredictable variations in the output power available from HRESs and to ensure the reliability of supply.…”

This study proposes a novel control strategy for a hybrid energy storage system (HESS), as a part of the gridindependent hybrid renewable energy system (HRES) which comprises diverse renewable energy resources and HESScombination of battery energy storage system (BESS) and supercapacitor energy storage system (SCESS). The proposed control strategy is implemented into two parts: in the first part, HESS controller is designed and implemented to maintain the active power balance among different constituents of HRES and regulate DC-link voltage (V DC) under surplus power mode and deficit power mode. The low-frequency components of imbalance power are diverted to BESS while the high-frequency components are diverted to SCESS while maintaining the state of charge (SoC) constraints of HESS thereby reducing stress on BESS. In the second part, inverter controller is designed and implemented to maintain AC voltage and frequency within limits in the events of perturbation. The proposed HESS along with its novel control strategy, as implemented in the HRES, is a new proposition in this study. The detailed model of HRES is simulated in MATLAB/Simulink and the results prove the efficacy of the control strategy. Further, hardware-in-loop real-time simulation studies using OPAL-RT real-time simulator demonstrate the feasibility of hardware implementation of HRES with the proposed control strategy.

“…In literature, various works involving hybrid systems structure have been devoted. [6][7][8][9][10] In Marzougui et al, 6 a fuel cell/battery/ultracapacitor hybrid power system has been proposed in a vehicular application. The power conversion stage is constituted by three DC/DC converters and an inverter.…”

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.
