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.

Due to the lack of fossil fuels, people are paying more and more attention to renewable energy. Wind energy is one of the important renewable energy. Unpredictability and volatility of the wind source make the output power unstable, so we need to control the active Power. This paper uses fuzzy control method, and the simulation results show that fuzzy control method mentioned in this paper is better than the conventional PI control for Wind power, the nonlinear system. Based on the analysis of pitch control theory and control process, we design fuzzy pitch controller and its model. We simulates gust wind speed imitates, wind turbine control and verifies the effects of the blur pitch control in a constant speed and constant frequency wind power generation system. According to the results of the simulation, we know the pitch controller of fuzzy logic has a better effect on the active control of the generator of the wind power generation system.

This paper proposes a photovoltaic fuel cell power generation system to convert solar thermal energy into electrical energy after storage. The energy conversion method of the system mainly utilizes hydrogen storage to realize long-term storage of thermal energy, and realizes continuous and stable power supply through the co-operation between the micro-gas turbine and the proton exchange membrane fuel cell. Based on the model of each component, the simulation platform of photovoltaic fuel cell hybrid thermal energy storage control power generation system is built. Based on the design principle and design requirements of photovoltaic power generation system, the photovoltaic fuel cell hybrid power generation system studied in this paper has a simple capacity. Match the design and conduct thermal energy storage management research on the system according to the system operation requirements. The paper studies the management of hybrid fuel energy storage control system for photovoltaic fuel cells. The paper is based on advanced thermal energy storage management for photovoltaic prediction and load forecasting, and through the organic combination of these three layers of thermal energy storage management to complete the thermal energy storage management of the entire system. Finally, the real-time thermal energy storage management based on power tracking control is simulated and analyzed in MATLAB/Simulink simulation environment.


There are many renewable energy sources in nature today. The most commonly used of these are solar, wave, wind and flow energy. The weakest aspect of these renewable energy sources in nature is that the amount of energy produced depends on the nature conditions. The power generation capacities of these energy sources depending on the weather conditions in order to more stable them are necessary to combine. By combining more than one renewable energy source, a hybrid power generation system is created. Hybrid energy storage units are added to this hybrid power generation system to ensure persistence of energy. In this study, sea flow energy and offshore wind energy are combined and a hybrid power generation system has been created. In addition, a hybrid energy storage unit consisting of a battery and ultracapacitor has been created in order to ensure the persistence of the energy produced. All two hybrid units were simulated using MATLAB/Simulink program. By integrating these systems with each other, their dynamic behaviors were investigated under possible working conditions. The results of the simulation show that the hybrid energy storage unit supports the wind and sea flow energy.

In order to realize the continuous stability of photovoltaic power generation system and the controllability of thermal energy storage, a photovoltaic fuel cell combined power generation system consisting of photovoltaic cell array, proton exchange membrane fuel cell, alkaline electrolysis cell and super capacitor is proposed. The system, at the same time, establishes the mathematical model of its various components and the system cost model, designs the thermal energy distribution of the thermal energy storage management coordination system, and uses the high efficiency battery to meet the load requirements of the power system. In addition, the paper uses simulation technology as a research method to build a simulation model of hybrid fuel cell thermal energy storage control and power generation system, and analyzes the system?s thermal energy supply and demand balance. The simulation results confirm that the photovoltaic fuel cell hybrid power generation system has high economic performance, can meet the user?s power and thermal energy requirements, and realizes the requirement of completely independent power supply.
