The power generation through renewable energy resources is increasing vastly, Solar energy and Wind Energy are the most abundantly available renewable energy resources. The growth of small scale distributed grid networks increasing rapidly in the modern power systems and Distributed Generation (DG) plays a predominant role. Microgrid is one among the emerging techniques in power systems. Power Management is mainly required to have control over the real and reactive power of individual DG and for smooth operation, maintaining stability and reliability. This paper presents a survey of the research works already reported focusing on power management of hybrid energy systems such as mainly solar and wind systems in microgrid. Six different approaches have been studied in detail for AC,DC and hybrid AC/DC microgrid.

Renewable energy resources are a favorable solution for the coming energy. So, a great interest has been paid in the last decades for developing and utilizing renewable energy resources as wind energy. As it has a large energy contents and, particularize with the availability, but the major problems of it are represented in unmatched with load demand because the intermittency and fluctuation of nature conditions. Many studies focused on the new strategy of using Battery Storage System (BSS), and solving some problems that affect the DC bus voltage and the BSS by using Electrochemical Double Layer Capacitor (EDLC). Their capability is to store energy to realize the objective of time shifting of surplus energy with a high efficiency. The article main objective is to model, simulate, design, and study the performance of a Stand-Alone Wind Energy System with Hybrid Energy Storage (SAWS-HES). Thus, a complete model of the proposed system is implemented including a detailed modeling procedure of the HESS components. In addition to the main contribution, a study of the performance of EDLC only as a storage device that has fast response device integrated to the suggested system then it hybridized with the BSS. The HESS has the capability to compensate the DC bus voltage in the transient conditions and gives good stability for the system. The SAWS-HES utilizes one main renewable energy resource as wind turbine and overall model is employed under MATLAB/Simulink including a developed simple logic controller. The SAWS-HES simulation results presented a promising performance and have a satisfied performance in meeting the end load demands at different operation conditions. This ensures the SAWS-HES reliability and the effectiveness with HES and the controller in stand-alone operation formulating an excellent solution for the renewable energy systems


In the modern era, most of the utility grid is connected with Renewable Energy resources (RERs). In addition to this, many power electronic converters and reactive power compensating devices are also incorporated into the existing grid. This makes the system complicated. Penetration of renewable energy resources affect many power system parameters like grid stability, quality of power, reactive power balance and Sufficient energy utilization. However, the Distributed Generation (DG) towards the power electronic interface creates some critical power quality events such as reactive power management, harmonics and voltage profile which makes the distributed system become a polluted one. This paper depicts the review of modelling and incorporation of various reactive power compensating devices like TCSC, SVC and STATCOM into RES. Power generation model of solar, wind and fuel farm is discussed in this paper. Reactive power compensating devices and its location and sizing are important for the stable and secure operation of the electric grid. Consequently, power quality issues, real-time interconnection issues and policies related to reactive power management are in this paper.

The paper presents the results of the comparative analysis of operation modes of an autonomous hybrid power complex with/without the energy store. We offere the technique which defines the power characteristics of the main components of a hybrid power complex: the consumers of the electric power, wind power and photo-electric installations (the last ones have been constructed). The paper establishes that, in order to compensate the seasonal fluctuations of power in autonomous power systems with renewable energy resources, the accumulative devices are required, with a capacity of tens of MWh including devices that are capable to provide energy storage with duration about half a year. This allows abandoning the storage devices for smoothing the seasonal fluctuations in the energy balance.The analysis of operation modes of energy stores has shown that for a stock and delivery of energy on time intervals, lasting several hours, the accumulative devices with rather high values of charging and digit power aren't required. It allows using the lead-acid rechargeable batteries of the deep category for smoothing the daily peaks of surplus and a capacity shortage. Moreover, the analysis of operation modes of energy stores as a part of the hybrid complexes has demonstrated that in charging/digit currents of the energy store the low-frequency and high-frequency pulsations of big amplitude caused by changes of size of output power of the renewable power installations and loading are inevitable. If low-frequency pulsations (the period of tens of minutes) can partially be damped due to the restriction of size of the maximum charging current of rechargeable batteries, then it is essentially impossible to eliminate high-frequency pulsations (the period of tens of seconds) in the power systems with the only store of energy. The paper finds out that the combined energy store having characteristics of the accumulator in the modes of receiving and delivery of power on daily time intervals, and at the same time having properties of the supercondenser in the modes of reception and return of impulses of power on second intervals of time is best suited to requirements of the autonomous power complexes with renewable energy resources.

Hybrid energy systems (HESs) are an excellent solution for electrification of remote rural areas where the grid extension is difficult or not economical. Usually, HES generally integrate one or several renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, hydropower, and geothermal with fossil fuel powered diesel/petrol generator to provide electric power where the electricity is either fed directly into the grid or to batteries for energy storage. This chapter presents a review on the solution approaches for determining the HES systems based on various objective functions (e.g. economic, social, technical, environmental and health impact). In order to take account of environmental and health impacts from energy systems, several energy optimization model was developed for minimizing pollution and maximizing the production of renewable energy.
