Modeling and Simulation of a Hybrid Energy Storage System for Residential Grid-Tied Solar Microgrid Systems

Present-day power conversion and conditioning systems focus on transferring energy from a single type of power source into a single type of load or energy storage system (ESS). While these systems can be optimized within their specific topology (e.g. MPPT for solar applications and BMS for batteries), the topologies are not easily adapted to accept a wide range of power flow operating conditions. With a hybrid approach to energy storage and power flow, a system can be designed to operate at its most advantageous point, given the operating conditions. Based on the load demand, the system can select the optimal power source and ESS. This paper will investigate the feasibility of combining two types of power sources (main utility grid and photovoltaics (PV)) along with two types of ESS (ultra-capacitors and batteries). The simulation results will show the impact of a hybrid ESS on a grid-tied residential microgrid system performance under various operating scenarios.

Fuzzy Adaptive Filtering-Based Energy Management for Hybrid Energy Storage System

Regarding the problem of the short driving distance of pure electric vehicles,a battery,super-capacitor,and DC/DC converter are combined to form a hybrid energy storage system(HESS).A fuzzy adaptive filtering-based energy management strategy(FAFBEMS)is proposed to allocate the required power of the vehicle.Firstly,the state of charge(SOC)of the super-capacitor is limited according to the driving/braking mode of the vehicle to ensure that it is in a suitable working state,and fuzzy rules are designed to adaptively adjust the filtering time constant,to realize reasonable power allocation.Then,the positive and negative power are determined,and the average power of driving/braking is calculated so as to limit the power amplitude to protect the battery.To verify the proposed FAFBEMS strategy for HESS,simulations are performed under the UDDS(Urban Dynamometer Driving Schedule)driving cycle.The results show that the FAFBEMS strategy can effectively reduce the current amplitude of the battery,and the final SOC of the battery and super-capacitor is optimized to varying degrees.The energy consumption is 7.8%less than that of the rule-based energy management strategy,10.9%less than that of the fuzzy control energy management strategy,and 13.1%less than that of the filtering-based energy management strategy,which verifies the effectiveness of the FAFBEMS strategy.

Energy management strategy for a parallel hybrid electric vehicle equipped with a battery/ultra-capacitor hybrid energy storage system

To solve the low power density issue of hybrid electric vehicular batteries, a combination of batteries and ultracapacitors (UCs) could be a solution. The high power density feature of UCs can improve the performance of battery/UC hybrid energy storage systems (HESSs). This paper presents a parallel hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) equipped with an internal combus- tion engine and an HESS. An advanced energy management strategy (EMS), mainly based on fuzzy logic, is proposed to improve the fuel economy of the HEV and the endurance of the HESS. The EMS is capable of determining the ideal distribution of output power among the internal combustion engine, battery, and UC according to the propelling power or regenerative braking power of the vehicle. To validate the effectiveness of the EMS, numerical simulation and experimental validations are carried out. The results indicate that EMS can effectively control the power sources to work within their respective efficient areas. The battery load can be mitigated and prolonged battery life can be expected. The electrical energy consumption in the HESS is reduced by 3.91% compared with that in the battery only system. Fuel consumption of the HEV is reduced by 24.3% compared with that of the same class conventional vehicles under Economic Commission of Europe driving cycle.

Analysis of Hybrid Rechargeable Energy Storage Systems in Series Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicles Based on Simulations

In this paper, an extended analysis of the performance of different hybrid Rechargeable Energy Storage Systems (RESS) for use in Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV) with a series drivetrain topology is analyzed, based on simulations with three different driving cycles. The investigated hybrid energy storage topologies are an energy optimized lithium-ion battery (HE) in combination with an Electrical Double-Layer Capacitor (EDLC) system, in combination with a power optimized lithium-ion battery (HP) system or in combination with a Lithium-ion Capacitor (LiCap) system, that act as a Peak Power System. From the simulation results it was observed that hybridization of the HE lithium-ion based energy storage system resulted from the three topologies in an increased overall energy efficiency of the RESS, in an extended all electric range of the PHEV and in a reduced average current through the HE battery. The lowest consumption during the three driving cycles was obtained for the HE-LiCap topology, where fuel savings of respectively 6.0%, 10.3% and 6.8% compared with the battery stand-alone system were achieved. The largest extension of the range was achieved for the HE-HP configuration (17% based on FTP-75 driving cycle). HP batteries however have a large internal resistance in comparison to EDLC and LiCap systems, which resulted in a reduced overall energy efficiency of the hybrid RESS. Additionally, it was observed that the HP and LiCap systems both offer significant benefits for the integration of a peak power system in the drivetrain of a Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle due to their low volume and weight in comparison to that of the EDLC system.

New energy vehicles play a positive role in reducing carbon emissions.To improve the dynamic performance and durability of vehicle powertrain,the hybrid energy storage system of“fuel cell/power battery plus super capacitor”is more used in new energy vehicles.Bidirectional DC–DC converters with wide voltage conversion range are essential for voltage matching and power decoupling between super capacitor and vehicle bus,helping to improve the low input voltage characteristics of super capacitors and realize the recovery of feedback energy.In recent years,the topologies of bidirectional converters have been widely investigated and optimized.Aiming to obtain bidirectional DC–DC converters with wide voltage conversion range suitable for hybrid energy storage system,a review of the research status of non-isolated converters based on impedance networks and isolated converters based on transformer are presented.Additionally,an evaluation system for bidirectional DC–DC topologies for hybrid energy storage system is constructed,providing a reference for designing bidirectional DC–DC converters.The performance of eight typical non-isolated converters and seven typical isolated converters are comprehensively evaluated by using this evaluation system.On this basis,issues about DC–DC converters for hybrid energy storage system are discussed,and some suggestions for the future research directions of DC–DC converters are proposed.The optimization of bidirectional DC–DC converters for hybrid energy storage system from the perspectives of wide bandgap device application,electromagnetic compatibility technology and converter fault diagnosis strategies is the main research direction.

Hierarchical Sizing and Power Distribution Strategy for Hybrid Energy Storage System

This paper proposes a hierarchical sizing method and a power distribution strategy of a hybrid energy storage system for plug-in hybrid electric vehicles(PHEVs),aiming to reduce both the energy consumption and battery degradation cost.As the optimal size matching is significant to multi-energy systems like PHEV with both battery and supercapacitor(SC),this hybrid system is adopted herein.First,the hierarchical optimization is conducted,when the optimal power of the internal combustion engine is calculated based on dynamic programming,and a wavelet transformer is introduced to distribute the power between the battery and the SC.Then,the fuel economy and battery degradation are evaluated to return feedback value to each sizing point within the hybrid energy storage system sizing space,obtaining the optimal sizes for the battery and the SC by comparing all the values in the whole sizing space.Finally,an all-hardware test platform is established with a fully active power conversion topology,on which the real-time control capability of the wavelet transformer method and the size matching between the battery and the SC are verified in both short and long time spans.

A comprehensive review on hybrid electric vehicles: architectures and components

The rapid consumption of fossil fuel and increased environmental damage caused by it have given a strong impetus to the growth and development of fuelefficient vehicles. Hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) have evolved from their inchoate state and are proving to be a promising solution to the serious existential problem posed to the planet earth. Not only do HEVs provide better fuel economy and lower emissions satisfying environmental legislations, but also they dampen the effect of rising fuel prices on consumers. HEVs combine the drive powers of an internal combustion engine and an electrical machine. The main components of HEVs are energy storage system, motor, bidirectional converter and maximum power point trackers (MPPT, in case of solar-powered HEVs). The performance of HEVs greatly depends on these components and its architecture. This paper presents an extensive review on essential components used in HEVs such as their architectures with advantages and disadvantages, choice of bidirectional converter to obtain high efficiency, combining ultracapacitor with battery to extend the battery life, traction motors’ role and their suitability for a particular application. Inclusion of photovoltaic cell in HEVs is a fairly new concept and has been discussed in detail. Various MPPT techniques used for solar-driven HEVs are also discussed in this paper with their suitability.

Optimal Sizing of Solar/Wind Hybrid Off-Grid Microgrids Using an Enhanced Genetic Algorithm

This paper presents a method for optimal sizing of an off-grid hybrid microgrid (MG) system in order to achieve a certain load demand. The hybrid MG is made of a solar photovoltaic (PV) system, wind turbine (TW) and energy storage system (ESS). The reliability of the MG system is modeled based on the loss of power supply probability (SPSP). For optimization, an enhanced Genetic Algorithm (GA) is used to minimize the total cost of the system over a 20-year period, while satisfying some reliability and operation constraints. A case study addressing optimal sizing of an off-grid hybrid microgrid in Nigeria is discussed. The result is compared with results obtained from the Brute Force and standard GA methods.

Flywheel Energy Storage with Mechanical Input-Output for Regenerative Braking

The system presented in this paper allows the direct transfer of kinetic energy of a vehicle’s motion to a flywheel and vice-versa. For braking, a cable winds onto a pulley geared to the vehicle’s propulsion driveshaft as it unwinds from another pulley geared to the flywheel and then operates in reverse for the transfer of energy in the opposite direction. The cable windings are in one plane resulting in an effective pulley radius that increases when the cable is winding onto it and decreases when unwinding from it. Thus, an increasing driven-to-driving pulley velocity ratio is obtained during a period of energy transfer in either direction. A dynamic analysis simulating the process was developed. Its application is illustrated with a numerical solution based on specific assumed values of system parameters.

Hybrid Power System Options for Off-Grid Rural Electrification in Northern Kenya

For domestic consumers in the rural areas of northern Kenya, as in other developing countries, the typical source of electrical supply is diesel generators. However, diesel generators are associated with both CO2 emissions, which adversely affect the environment and increase diesel fuel prices, which inflate the prices of consumer goods. The Kenya government has taken steps towards addressing this issue by proposing The Hybrid Mini-Grid Project, which involves the installation of 3 MW of wind and solar energy systems in facilities with existing diesel generators. However, this project has not yet been implemented. As a contribution to this effort, this study proposes, simulates and analyzes five different configurations of hybrid energy systems incorporating wind energy, solar energy and battery storage to replace the stand-alone diesel power systems servicing six remote villages in northern Kenya. If implemented, the systems proposed here would reduce Kenya’s dependency on diesel fuel, leading to reductions in its carbon footprint. This analysis confirms the feasibility of these hybrid systems with many configurations being profitable. A Multi-Attribute Trade-Off Analysis is employed to determine the best hybrid system configuration option that would reduce diesel fuel consumption and jointly minimize CO2 emissions and net present cost. This analysis determined that a wind-diesel-battery configuration consisting of two 500 kW turbines, 1200 kW diesel capacity and 95,040 Ah battery capacity is the best option to replace a 3200 kW stand-alone diesel system providing electricity to a village with a peak demand of 839 kW. It has the potential to reduce diesel fuel consumption and CO2 emissions by up to 98.8%.
