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

It is very important that the installed renewable energy system should produce the maximum power outputs with minimum costs, and that can only be achieved with the selection of the best optimization technique applied for the best control strategies along with the introduction of the hybrid energy storage systems (HESS). This chapter presents some optimization techniques applied in control strategies for hybrid energy storage systems in distributed renewable energy systems. The integration of energy production and consumption component through the smart grid concept enables increased demand response and energy efficiency. Hybrid energy storage systems and their applications in the renewable energy systems are extensively discussed besides control strategies involved. The storages systems will play an important role in future related to smart grid.

Abstract As the fossil energy crisis and environmental pollution become more and more serious, clean renewable energy becomes the inevitable choice of energy structure adjustment. The power system planning and operation has been greatly influenced by the instability of the power output of distributed renewable energy systems such as solar energy and wind energy. The hybrid energy storage system composed of accumulator and supercapacitor can solve the above problems. Based on the analysis of the energy storage requirements for the stable operation of the DC microgrid, battery–supercapacitor cascade approach is adopted to form hybrid energy storage system, in a single hybrid energy storage subsystem for battery and supercapacitor and in the microgrid system of different hybrid energy storage subsystem, respectively, and puts forward the corresponding power allocation method to realize the smooth control of the battery current, to reduce the battery charge and discharge times, to prolong the service life of battery and to improve the running stability of the microgrid.

The penetration of renewable energy systems in remote areas contributes to reply to its accrued demand of electricity. Renewable energy systems as photovoltaic generation systems and wind generation systems are characterized by their unpredictable and intermittent character presenting the main drawback of these systems. Although this advantage, the problems caused by the intermittency of these systems can be resolved by employing a battery energy storage system. To this end this paper proposes and analyses an efficient and optimal methodology dedicated to applications fed by renewable energy systems. Since an optimal energy storage bank sizing is needed in order to assure the continuity and reliability of electricity supply of remote areas from these kinds of energy sources. The first part of this article describes the renewable hybrid system structure and different factors influencing the storage system dimensioning. Different scenarios of renewable sources power generations in order to develop an optimal battery bank sizing algorithm are investigated the second part of this article. The formulation of the algorithm is finally presented and discussed.

Abstract Hybrid energy plants, which include both fossil fuel technologies and renewable energy systems, can provide an important step towards a sustainable energy supply. In fact, the hybridization of renewable energy systems with gas turbines which are fed by fossil fuels allows an acceptable compromise, so that high fossil fuel efficiency and high share of renewables can be potentially achieved. Moreover, electrical and thermal energy storage systems increase the flexibility of the energy plant and effectively manage the variability of energy production and demand. This paper investigates the optimal sizing of a hybrid energy plant which combines an industrial gas turbine, renewable energy systems and energy storage technologies. The considered renewable energy system is a photovoltaic system, while the energy storage technologies are electrical energy storage and thermal energy storage. Moreover, a compression chiller and a gas boiler are also considered. For this purpose, the load profiles of electricity, heating and cooling during a whole year are taken into account for the case study of the Campus of the University of Parma (Italy). The sizing optimization problem of the different technologies composing the hybrid energy plant is solved by using a genetic algorithm, with the goal of minimizing primary energy consumption. Moreover, different operation strategies are analyzed and compared so that plant operation is also optimized. The results demonstrate that the optimal sizing of the hybrid energy plant, coupled with the optimized operation strategy, allows high average cogeneration efficiency (up to 84%), thus minimizing primary energy consumption.
