The objective of this work is to develop a power management system that will control the power flow of an integrated renewable energy system with the focus on solar energy and wind energy and dual energy storage systems (batteries are used as the primary energy storage system for short to moderate storage term, whereas hydrogen fuel cell is used as a backup and long-term energy storage). These storage systems are needed to provide high reliability and control systems are necessary for the stable and optimal operation of the whole system. An Intelligent Power Management System (IPMS) is developed to handle various changes in power supply and power demand by managing erratic power and provide suitable control algorithm for the whole system. In order to test and validate the proposed IPMS model, simulations were conducted under various power supply and power demand using power system modeled in HOMER environment. The performed simulations confirm the ability of the IPMS to satisfy the load at all times using solar and wind power (which are unsteady renewables), through the support of batteries and hydrogen fuel cell without a reduction in the power quality or load supply.

This project aims at the problems of low efficiency and large emission of LNG energy and other fossil energy. Combined with existing basic hydrogen fuel cell technology and solar power generation technology, a set of ship power management system based on hydrogen fuel cell is designed. Combined with solar energy technology, it effectively improves fuel efficiency and greatly reduces greenhouse gas emissions.

The development of more sustainable and zero-emissions collective transport solutions could play a very important measure in the near future within smart city policies. This paper tries to give a contribution to this aim, proposing a novel approach to fuel cell vehicle design and operation. Traditional difficulties experienced in fuel cell transient operation are, in fact, normally solved in conventional vehicle prototypes, through the hybridization of the propulsion system and with the complete fulfillment of transients in road energy demand through a high-capacity onboard energy storage device. This makes it normally necessary to use Li-ion battery solutions, accepting their restrictions in terms of weight, costs, energy losses, limited lifetime, and environmental constraints. The proposed solution, instead, introduces a partitioning of the hydrogen fuel cell (FC) and novel optimal power control strategy, with the aim of limiting the capacity of the energy storage, still avoiding FC transient operation. The limited capacity of the resulting energy storage systems which, instead, has to answer higher power requests, makes it possible to consider the utilization of a high-speed flywheel energy storage system (FESS) in place of high energy density Li-ion batteries. The proposed control strategy was validated by vehicle simulations based on a modular and parametric model; input data were acquired experimentally on an operating electric bus in real traffic conditions over an urban bus line. Simulation results highlight that the proposed control strategy makes it possible to obtain an overall power output for the FC stacks which better follows road power demands, and a relevant downsizing of the FESS device.

To construct a supervisory control platform for hybrid energy supplement power supply system, the constitution, functions of a power management system are proposed. Supervision and control system is founded based on KingView according to functional requirements and characteristic s of the power management system. Driving procedure of the KingView is written according to communication protocol of the data acquisition module at first Communication between PC and machine is achieved. Then, the running of equipments is simulated, and real-time date is monitored, showed, analyzed and processed. Then optimal management, coordinative control and seamless switching of hybrid energy supplement power supply system are achieved.
