Concerned with the increasing greenhouse gases in the atmosphere due to fossil fuels, the entire world is focusing on electricity generation through renewable energy resources. The most advantageous aspect of the distributed renewable sources is to provide the electricity to remote, scattered and the deprived rural areas by developing the hybrid power system at the smaller scale where power transmission through grid extension is not viable due to some economical, technical or environmental constraints for building new transmission lines. An accurate and adequate control strategy becomes inevitable to uphold the smooth operation by restraining the frequency and voltage deviation within its limit ensuring the highest degree of reliability of hybrid power system to provide an adequate power quality. In this paper, a comprehensive review of different control strategies adopted in isolated and interconnected multi-area hybrid power systems is presented.

One of the major world wide concerns of the utilities is to reduce the emissions from traditional power plants by using renewable energy and to reduce the high cost of supplying electricity to remote areas. Hybrid power systems can provide a good solution for such problems because they integrate renewable energy along with the traditional power plants. In Kingdom of Saudi Arabia a remote village called Al-Qtqt, was selected as a case study in order to investigate the ability to use a hybrid power system to provide the village with its needs of electricity. The simulation of this hybrid power system was done using HOMER software.

Because clean energy and traditional energy have different advantages and disadvantages, it is of great significance to evaluate comprehensive benefits for hybrid power systems. Based on thorough analysis of important characters on hybrid power systems, an index system including security, economic benefit, environmental benefit, and social benefit is established in this paper. Due to advantages of processing abundant uncertain and fuzzy information, vague set is used to determine the decision matrix. Convert vague decision matrix to real one by vague combination ruleand determine uncertain degrees of different indexes by grey incidence analysis, then the mass functions of different comment set in different indexes are obtained. Information can be fused in accordance with Dempster-Shafer (D-S) combination rule and the evaluation result is got by vague set and D-S evidence theory. A simulation of hybrid power system including thermal power, wind power, and photovoltaic power in China is provided to demonstrate the effectiveness and potential of the proposed design scheme. It can be clearly seen that the uncertainties in decision making can be dramatically decreased compared with existing methods in the literature. The actual implementation results illustrate that the proposed index system and evaluation model based on vague set and D-S evidence theory are effective and practical to evaluate comprehensive benefit of hybrid power system.

Hybrid power systems provide high-performances and high-efficiency power for electric bulldozer. This paper firstly constructs the mathematical model of driving motors system based on the design of dual-motor-driving propulsion system for bulldozer. Secondly, by using the setting values from a bulldozer, simulation work is implemented, and parameters of the hybrid power system are matched, and finally, based on MATLAB/Simulink ,dynamic models for the dual-motor-driving hybrid power system is established, and the simulation results are discussed. Simulation results demonstrate the validity of the hybrid power system model and the matching of the parameters of the hybrid power system is reasonable.

—Hybrid power system consists of different sources of electrical energy with different operating times during different seasons. Deployment of a hybrid power system is expected in rural areas. Supplying remote load systems such as rural telephony, hospitals, military etc.., where continuous power supply is required, can be realized with the combination of wind and solar power. The proposed topology is designed for telecom load which uses dual input dc-dc fused converter for combining solar and wind energy sources. For the further research and improvements in the proposed fused converter topology, it is necessary to know in detail the power flow from solar and wind sources to the load or to storage battery depending on different seasons. For various wind speed with constant solar irirradiation and, for various solar irirradiations with constant wind speed, the power flow of the hybrid power system is simulated and presented. The same topology is investigated for different switching frequencies (10 kHz and 20 kHz), using MATLAB/SIMULINK, and the efficiencies are calculated.

A surrogate modeling approach was developed and implemented for facilitating the design of renewable, hybrid power systems. A time-series hybrid power system simulation code (HOMER with supplement analysis) was replicated via readily executable neural network surrogate models. These surrogate models were subsequently integrated into a conceptual design engineering tool. The tool enables the rapid sizing and optimization of system components in the face of variable environmental conditions (i.e., renewable energy resources), economic conditions and weighted objectives. Accordingly, this tool was successfully used in the multi-objective design of a deployable hybrid renewable power system. This same capability can also be used to assess the feasibility of the requirements and constraints themselves, and potentially to guide the customer to appropriate design specifications.

Abstract Diesel generator (DG)-battery power systems are often adopted by telecom operators, especially in semi-urban and rural areas of developing countries. Unreliable electric grids (UEG), which have frequent and lengthy outages, are peculiar to these regions. DG-UEG-battery power system is an important kind of hybrid power system. System dispatch is one of the key factors to hybrid power system integration. In this paper, the system dispatch of a DG-UEG-lead acid battery power system is studied with the UEG of relatively ample electricity in Central African Republic (CAR) and UEG of poor electricity in Congo Republic (CR). The mathematical models of the power system and the UEG are studied for completing the system operation simulation program. The net present cost (NPC) of the power system is the main evaluation index. The state of charge (SOC) set points and battery bank charging current are the optimization variables. For the UEG in CAR, the optimal dispatch solution is SOC start and stop points 0.4 and 0.5 that belong to the Micro-Cycling strategy and charging current 0.1 C. For the UEG in CR, the optimal dispatch solution is of 0.1 and 0.8 that belongs to the Cycle-Charging strategy and 0.1 C. Charging current 0.1 C is suitable for both grid scenarios compared to 0.2 C. It makes the dispatch strategy design easier in commercial practices that there are a few very good candidate dispatch solutions with system NPC values close to that of the optimal solution for both UEG scenarios in CAR and CR.

A sizing procedure is developed for hybrid system with the aid of mathematical models for photovoltaic cell, wind turbine, and battery that are readily present in the literature. This sizing procedure can simulate the annual performance of different kinds of photovoltaic-wind hybrid power system structures for an identified set of renewable resources, which fulfills technical limitations with the lowest energy cost. The output of the program will display the performance of the system during the year, the total cost of the system, and the best size for the PV-generator, wind generator, and battery capacity. Security lightning application is selected, whereas system performance data and environmental operating conditions are measured and stored. This hybrid system, which includes a PV, wind turbine, inverter, and a battery, was installed to supply energy to 24 W lamps, considering that the renewable energy resources of this site where the system was installed were 1700 Wh/m2/day solar radiation and 3.43 m/s yearly average wind speed. Using the measured variables, the inverter and charge regulator efficiencies were calculated as 90% and 98%, respectively, and the overall system’s electrical efficiency is calculated as 72%. Life cycle costs per kWh are found to be $0.89 and LLP = 0.0428.
