Energy Management of a Hybrid Energy System (PV/PEMFC/Li-Ion Battery)

This work is designed for the management of the electric power of an autonomous hybrid system which generally integrates several subsystems, whose main source of production is solar energy (photovoltaic panels) coupled with a hydrogen fuel cell using a storage device (lithium battery). This energy coupling behavior is used in a wide range of operating conditions ensuring the originality of the exploitation of the energy produced to supply electricity to remote regions and isolated urban regions of southern Algeria, which will be modeled by a recent graphic formalism methodology macroscopic energy representation and controlled by a simple method the maximum control structure that takes into account all the inputs and outputs of the system. This hybrid system is controlled by an energy management strategy by acting on a common continuous bus with variable residential load via a DC/DC converter, allowing control of the amount of energy between the different energy resources to minimize the use of the fuel cell from which to minimize hydrogen consumption. Another is used to maintain the voltage of this bus at its reference via the battery by regulating the bidirectional DC/DC.
