Power Generation System

The paper presents an architecture and engineering of hydrogen fuel cell electric power generation system based on renewable energy that already installed in Tenjolaya village, Wanassalam sub-district, Lebak - Banten Province. It also discloses some important information as well as some valuable experiences from the pilot plant operation. The renewable electric power generation system combines wind turbine, photovoltaic, hydrogen electrolysis and fuel cell. The basic design of this system is focused on energy storage in the form of hydrogen gas that can be converted back into electricity by using fuel cell units. The engineering development was done to address the issues on limited energy storage in the battery unit which has several drawbacks i.e. short battery lifetime, limited storage capacity and rigorous and continuous maintenance schedule. To enable remote control and monitoring, a web based monitoring system was developed. From the monitoring system the following information are obtained: the amount of electrical power produced by the wind turbine that was intermittent and depends on time that reached 3000 W; similar pattern is observed from the output power of solar PVs and a maximum point of the solar cell power generation was 640 Watt; the time of electricity production by the wind turbine and the solar cell is complementary to each other in every one day cycle. Two valuable experiences have been gained those are: the location near sea shore has a very corrosive air that damages the wind turbine component, and the use of fuel cell requires high investment cost.

The negative impact of fossil-fueled plants and the lack of public understanding of renewable energy lies behind the holding of these PKM activities with the aim of educating and at the same time transferring technology that is directly beneficial to the community in the form of solar powered street lighting. From the surveys that have been conducted where there are no available street lighting facilities so that there are some community activities that are difficult to do at night. From this work, there were two important things, among others, that the community gained an understanding of renewable energy and knowledge to efficiently use energy to reduce the environmental impact of the dominant fossil power plant in Indonesia. The second is that with the help of solar-powered street lights, the community is very helpful in carrying out activities at night and creates more secure conditions in the community.

Smart Room

This study aims to design a concept of Smart Room System with a source of electricity derived from the Solar Cell System in a home which can facilitate human activities while in the house such as turning on and off the lights, open and close the door of the house. Smart Room System is a technology that allows homeowners to control the entire contents of the house in one hand, can be a smartphone or other gadgets. In improving security and comfort, this system is controlled by Arduino microcontroller. Arduino is connected to a computer via USB, programmed using C language via Arduino IDE by uploading compiled code to Arduino board. Arduino microcontrollers can be utilized as a home light controller, automatic door control and feature controller of other electronic devices. Associated with the many electronic features used in the Smart Room System, the source of electricity used is from a solar power plant that is known that solar or solar is one source of renewable energy is much cheaper, environmentally friendly and more efficient because it minimizes the use of sources electricity PLN 220 V.

And Performance

Installation and performance analysis of Thermapower™ 125MT Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) System for recovery of waste heat from an existing Molten Carbonate Fuel Cell (MCFC) plant are presented. Over the last three years, about 100 MWe of new FC stationary power plants are in operation in Korea and more FC stationary power plants are on order and planned. The success of these fuel cell plants is their capability to supply both electricity and heat to customers. In order to promote renewable energy in Korea, the Korean Government is enforcing large power plants to supply electricity generated by renewable energy. The Korea Power Exchange (KPX) buys fuel cell generated electricity as renewable energy with higher price than other fossil fuel power plants [1]. Most of these FC plants supply electricity to power companies with their full capability, however valuable heat is wasted due to the limited demand, especially in summer season and off working hours or lack of heat pipe infrastructures. Due to the recent decrease in electricity price for renewable energy in Korea, the need for efficient utilization of waste heat is ever more demanding. In this study, 125 kWe ORC system is installed to 11.2 MWe FC power plant to demonstrate cost saving benefits. This FC Power plant has 4 units of 2.8 MWe fuel cell in operation and has capacity of producing 6.0 ton/h of 167°C steam. In order to install an ORC system to existing FC plant, their Balance of Plant (BoP) has to be modified since only excess steam is allow to be utilized by the ORC system, after supplying steam to their prime customer. Furthermore, site has distinctly hot and cold seasons, thus affecting condensing conditions and therefore ORC performance. Design considerations to accommodate varying ambient conditions as well as steam flow rate variation are presented and discussed.
