In this paper, optimal size and power exchange of a grid-connected diesel generator-photovoltaic-fuel cell (diesel/PV/FC) hybrid energy system is investigated by multi-objective optimization for a community in Kerman, Iran. To optimally size hybrid system, number of system components (PV panels, diesel generators, electrolysers, FCs and hydrogen tanks) are considered as decision variables. In this paper, to optimize power exchange between the hybrid system and grid, two other decision variables are introduced: selling coefficient and purchase coefficient. Selling and purchase coefficients are defined to optimize the amount of electricity sold to the grid and the amount of electricity purchased from the grid, respectively. In order to optimally design the hybrid system, multi-objective optimization has been considered with respect to three objectives: levelized cost of energy (LCOE), loss of power supply probability (LPSP) and renewability. Based on simulation results, it can be drawn that when the hybrid system can sell/buy energy to/from the grid, (1) by decreasing non-renewable energy source usage, the value of LPSP increases, (2) by decrease of non-renewable energy usage, value of LCOE increases and (3) using FC system leads to increasing LCOE. 相似文献

A technical-economic investigation based on mathematical modeling, simulation, and optimization approach is employed in this research to assemble an island combined renewable energy systems (CRES) consists of solar PV/Wind/Fuel Cell (FC) of a small-scale countryside area in Egypt. The intent of the proposed island CRES is to boost the share of renewable energy in the energy mix and to study the possibility of using fuel cells as a storage/backup system instead of using battery banks.Three combinations of CRES are presented in this research to select the most optimum one. The combinations of the hybrid systems are PV/FC, PV/WT/FC, and WT/FC. The performance and the total cost of the suggested CRES were optimized using Firefly Algorithm (FA). The results obtained from the FA are compared with those obtained from the Shuffled Frog Leaping Algorithm (SFLA) and the particle swarm optimization (PSO).The selected case study area with latitude and longitude of (29.0214 N, 30.8714 E) is identified for economic viability in this work.The simulation outcomes show that the solar PV/Wind/Fuel Cell combination incorporated with an electrolyzer for hydrogen production grants the excellent performance. The proposed system is economically viable with a levelized cost of energy of 0.47 $/kWh. 相似文献

In this study, design and optimization of the hybrid renewable energy system consisting of Photovoltaic (PV)/Electrolyzer/Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC) was investigated to provide electricity and heat for Greenhouse in ?anl?urfa (Turkey). The coupling of a photovoltaic system with PEMFC was preferred to supply continuous production of electric energy throughout the year. Additionally, produced heat from PEMFC was used to heating of the greenhouse by micro cogeneration application. The MATLAB/Simulink was applied to the design and optimization of the proposed hybrid system. In the designed system, solar energy was selected to produce the Hydrogen (H2) required to run the electrolyzer. In cases where the solar energy is not sufficient and cannot meet the electricity requirement for the electrolyzer; the H2 requirement for the operation of the PEMFC was met from the H2 storage tanks and energy continuity was ensured. The electrolyzer was designed for H2 demand of the 3 kW PEMFC which were met the greenhouse energy requirement. PEMFC based hybrid system has 48% electrical and 45% thermal efficiencies. According to optimization results obtained for the proposed hybrid system, the levelized cost of energy was found 0.117 $/kWh. The obtained results show the proposed PV/Electrolyzer/PEMFC hybrid power system provides an applicable option for powering stand-alone application in a self-sustainable expedient. 相似文献

In addition to the high financial cost of energy resources required to meet the rising demand for electricity consumption in Kuwait, the negative environmental impact of fossil fuel is increasing. Hence, the objective of this paper is to determine the economic feasibility and viability of implementing PV solar energy in the State of Kuwait. It was found that the positive characteristics of solar radiation in Kuwait play a critical role in enhancing the feasibility of implementing solar systems. Under the present price of 5$/W and 15% efficiency, the LCOE of a 1 MW station is estimated to be around $0.20/kWh. This LCOE can be feasible only when the cost of oil is around 100$/barrel. The Cost Benefit Analysis showed that when the value of saved energy resources used in producing traditional electricity, and the cost of lowering CO2 emissions are accounted for, the true economic cost of LCOE of a PV system will decline significantly. The preliminary economic analysis recommends the implementation of PV technology in Kuwait. 相似文献

In this paper, the robust capability of HOMER and Criteria-COPRAS is deployed to explore the prospect of selecting a renewable energy system. The energy system consisting of wind turbines, solar photovoltaic (PV), fuel cell (FC), electrolyzer, hydrogen storage, and battery energy storage is intended to power a residential load in Lagos Nigeria. Based on the economic metric, the results show that the optimal system is a PV-Battery whose total net present cost (TNPC) and initial investment cost are $9060 and $3,818, respectively. However, if the energy systems are ranked based on multiple criteria (economic, technical and environmental aspects), the most preferred of the feasible energy systems is a hybrid PV-FC-wind-battery (TNPC-$10,324, initial cost: $7670). The study results indicate that, for viability in the adoption of hydrogen energy storage as part of the hybrid energy system, the selection metric should be based on more than one criterion. 相似文献

Hybrid renewable energy system (HRES) can provide power without emission for off-grid areas. Due to intermittency of renewable energy, energy storage system (ESS) is essential for reliable power supply, while its cost is still relatively high. Appropriate power management strategy (PMS) can help to delay the degradation of energy storage devices and reduce the system cost. In this study, power management strategy and configuration optimization of the system are focused and the study includes three main contributions. First, mathematical models of the system, including photovoltaics (PVs), wind turbines (WTs), batteries, fuel cells (FCs), electrolyzers (ELZs), and hydrogen tanks are developed. The degradation of fuel cells and electrolyzers is considered in the modeling process. Second, power management strategy considering hysteresis band is employed to control energy flow to delay fuel cell and electrolyzer degradation. Third, a multi-objective optimization function including the system net annual value (NAV), loss of power supply probability (LPSP) and excess energy (Eexcess) is established. Non-dominating Sorting Genetic Algorithm II (NSGA-II) is used to solve objective function. The results demonstrate that using hysteresis band help improve the system performance and reduce the cost. In addition, by setting the goal of excess energy, system reliability is well preserved with a LPSP as low as 0.92%. Compared with other optimization algorithms such as MOEA/D, NSGA-II has a smaller SI value of 422.10 and a larger DI value of 830.78, therefore the Pareto solution obtained by NSGA-II has a more uniform distribution and larger coverage. 相似文献

Economic and environmental concerns over fossil fuels encourage the development of photovoltaic (PV) energy systems. Due to the intermittent nature of solar energy, energy storage is needed in a stand-alone PV system for the purpose of ensuring continuous power flow. Three stand-alone photovoltaic power systems using different energy storage technologies are studied in this paper. Key components including PV modules, fuel cells, electrolyzers, compressors, hydrogen tanks and batteries are modeled in a clear way so as to facilitate the evaluation of the power systems. Based on energy storage technology, a method of ascertaining minimal system configuration is designed to perform the sizing optimization and reveal the correlations between the system cost and the system efficiency. The three hybrid power systems, i.e., photovoltaic/battery (PV/Battery) system, photovoltaic/fuel cell (PV/FC) system, and photovoltaic/fuel cell/battery (PV/FC/Battery) system, are optimized, analyzed and compared. The obtained results indicate that maximizing the system efficiency while minimizing system cost is a multi-objective optimization problem. As a trade-off solution to the problem, the proposed PV/FC/Battery hybrid system is found to be the configuration with lower cost, higher efficiency and less PV modules as compared with either single storage system. 相似文献

Many universities have plans to reduce campus energy consumption with developed energy efficiency strategies, supply the energy needs of the university campus with renewable energy and create a green campus. In order to serve this purpose, this study focuses on the simulation of the installation of an on-grid photovoltaic (PV) power system at the Vocational Colleges Campus, Hitit University. On the other hand, the integration of the simulated PV system with a gas fired-trigeneration system is discussed. Moreover, the study explores opportunities for solar hydrogen generation without energy storage on campus. For the PV system simulation, three different scenarios were created by using web-based PV system design software (HelioScope). Installed powers in the simulation were found as 94.2 kWe, 123.9 kWe, and 157.5 kWe for the low scenario (on the rooftop), high scenario (on the rooftop), and the high + PV canopy arrays scenario (on the rooftop and an outdoor parking area), respectively. The levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) values were 0.061 $/kWh, 0.065 $/kWh, and 0.063 $/kWh for the low scenario, high scenario, and the scenario including PV canopy, respectively. The energy payback time is found to be 6.47–6.94 years for the 20–25 years lifetime of the PV plant. The simulation results showed that the PV system could support it by generating additional electrical energy up to 25% of the existing system. The campus can reduce GHG emissions of 1546–2272 tonnes-CO2eq, which is equivalent to 142–209 ha of forest-absorbing carbon unused during the life of the PV system. Depending on the production and consumption methods utilized on campus, which is a location with relatively large solar potential, the levelized cost of hydrogen (LCOH) of hydrogen generation ranged from 0.054 $/kWhH2 (1.78 $/kgH2) to 0.103 $/kWhH2 (3.4 $/kgH2). Consequently, with proper planning and design, a grid-connected PV-trigeneration-hydrogen generation hybrid system on a university campus may operate successfully. 相似文献

An electrolyzer/fuel cell energy storage system is a promising alternative to batteries for storing energy from solar electric power systems. Such a system was designed, including a proton-exchange membrane (PEM) electrolyzer, high-pressure hydrogen and oxygen storage, and a PEM fuel cell. The system operates in a closed water loop. A prototype system was constructed, including an experimental PEM electrolyzer and combined gas/water storage tanks. Testing goals included general system feasibility, characterization of the electrolyzer performance (target was sustainable 1.0 A/cm2 at 2.0 V per cell), performance of the electrolyzer as a compressor, and evaluation of the system for direct-coupled use with a PV array. When integrated with a photovoltaic array, this type of system is expected to provide reliable, environmentally benign power to remote installations. If grid-coupled, this system (without PV array) would provide high-quality backup power to critical systems such as telecommunications and medical facilities. 相似文献

Hybrid energy systems (HESs) comprising photovoltaic (PV) arrays and wind turbines (WTs) are remarkable solutions for electrifying remote areas. These areas commonly fulfil their energy demands by means of a diesel genset (DGS). In the present study, a novel computational intelligence algorithm called supply‐demand‐based optimization (SDO) is applied to the HES sizing problem based on long‐term cost analysis. The effectiveness of SDO is investigated, and its performance is compared with that of the genetic algorithm (GA), particle swarm optimization (PSO), gray wolf optimizer (GWO), grasshopper optimization algorithm (GOA), flower pollination algorithm (FPA), and big‐bang‐big‐crunch (BBBC) algorithm. Three HES scenarios are implemented using measured solar radiation, wind speed, and load profile data to electrify an isolated village located in the northern region of Saudi Arabia. The optimal design is evaluated on the basis of technical (loss of power supply probability [LPSP]) and economic (annualized system cost [ASC]) criteria. The evaluation addresses two performance indicators: surplus energy and the renewable energy fraction (REF). The results reveal the validity and superiority of SDO in determining the optimal sizing of an HES with a higher convergence rate, lower ASC, lower LPSP, and higher REF than that of the GA, PSO, GWO, GOA, FPA, and BBBC algorithms. The performance analysis also reveals that an HES comprising PV arrays, WTs, battery banks, and DGS provides the best results: 238.7 kW from PV arrays, 231.6 kW from WTs, 192.5 kWh from battery banks, and 267.6 kW from the DGS. The optimal HES exhibits a high REF (66.4%) and is economically feasible ($104 323.10/year) and environmentally friendly. The entire load demand of the area under study is met without power loss (LPSP = 0%). 相似文献

Renewable energy sources can produce less carbon than conventional energy sources, which has the significant disadvantage of being intermittent, which triggers a stable storage system. This work focuses on the issues of hydrogen energy storage which can solve the fluctuating output power problem by simulating results on HOMER software. Three combinations of the Solar-Hydrogen system, Wind-Hydrogen system, and Solar-Wind-Hydrogen hybrid system are presented to find the most optimum one. Levelized Cost of Energy (LCOE) for Hybrid System has proven to be the most economical while the Wind Turbine cost 1.476% higher and the Solar Photovoltaics (PV) System costs 108.03% more. LCOE for Hybrid Model is $0.3387, while for Solar System it is $ 0.7046 and for Wind System it is $ 0.3437. These results show that a hydrogen-based energy storage system is viable for the considered. 相似文献

This paper presents a conceptual design of a solar powered hydrogen fueling station for a single family home in Wallingford, Connecticut, USA. Sixty high-efficiency monocrystalline silicon photovoltaic (PV) solar panels (Total capacity: 18.9 kW) account for approximately 94.7% of the hydrogen home’s power consumption. The fueling station consists of a 165 bar high pressure electrolyzer for on-site production of 2.24 kg/day of hydrogen, three-bank cascade configuration storage tanks (4.26 kg of H2 at 350 bar) and a SAE J2600 compliant hydrogen nozzle. The system produces 0.8 kg/day of hydrogen for a fuel cell vehicle with an average commute of 56 km/day (Fuel mileage: 71 km/kg H2). Safety codes and standards applicable at the facility are described, and a well-to-wheel analysis is performed to contrast the carbon dioxide emissions of conventional gasoline and fuel cell vehicles. The energy efficiency obtained by incorporating a solar-hydrogen system for residential applications is also computed. 相似文献

The economic analysis of solar energy development is the basis of promoting the solar energy planning in north Africa and realizing the clean energy power transmission among continents. In this paper, the cost development trend of photovoltaic(PV) power and concentrating solar power(CSP) generation is analyzed, and the levelized cost of energy (LCOE) of solar power generation is forecasted. Then, taking the development of Tunisian solar energy as an example in the context of transcontinental transmission, PV power with energy storage and PV-CSP power generation are given as two kinds of development plan respectively. The installed capacity configurations of the two schemes are given with production simulation method, and comprehensive LCOE are calculated. The studies show that based on the LCOE forecast value, the LCOE of PV-CSP combined power generation will decrease when the annual utilization hours of transmission channel is increased. It can be chosen as one of important mode of the North Africa solar energy development. 相似文献

The present study proposes a techno-economic study for an off-grid combined green energy system (CGES). The system uses a photovoltaic (PV) system as a primary mover and a backup PEMFC system (Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells). The suggested CGES is conditioned by a new advanced nature-inspired approach, named Fractional-order Pathfinder Optimizer (FOPA), which is used for the factors’ optimal size selection to decrease the value of Total Net Present (TNPV) based on the power supply possibility Loss (PSPL) for the system. To improve the performance of the system, FOPA is used for minimizing the power supply possibility loss (PSPL). For analyzing of the method efficiency, it is performed to a building in Nanping shi Village (Ye Village), Fujian, Sheng, China. Finally, the sensitivity assessment was implemented by levelized cost of energy (LCOE). Final results have been compared with several published approaches to specify the technique with higher efficacy. The outcomes demonstrate that utilizing the offered FOPA, the optimal numbers of FCs, Electrolyzers, PV systems, and hydrogen reservoir tanks are 25, 50, 20, and 30, respectively, that are happened with 4.86% EEP and 1.38% PSPl. 相似文献

Solar PV arrays made of interconnected modules are comparatively less susceptible to shadow problem and power degradation resulting from the aging of solar cells. This paper presents a simulation model for the sizing of stand-alone solar PV systems with interconnected arrays. It considers the electricity generation in the array and its storage in the battery bank serving the fluctuating load demand. The loss of power supply probability (LPSP) is used to connote the risk of not satisfying the load demand. The non-tracking (e.g., fixed and tilted) and single-axis tracking aperture arrays having cross-connected modules of single crystalline silicon solar cells in a (6×6) modular configuration are considered. The simulation results are illustrated with the help of a numerical example wherein the load demand is assumed to follow uniform probabilistic distribution. For a given load, the numbers of solar PV modules and batteries corresponding to zero values of LPSP on diurnal basis during the year round cycle of operation are presented. The results corresponding to the surplus and deficit of energy as a function of LPSP are also presented and discussed to assess the engineering design trade offs in the system components.Furthermore, a simple cost analysis has also been carried out, which indicates that for Delhi the stand-alone solar PV systems with fixed and tilted aperture arrays are better option than those with single-axis tracking aperture (with north–south oriented tracking axis) arrays. 相似文献

The current study deals with a potential solution for the replacement of fossil fuel based energy resources with a sustainable solar energy resource. Electrical energy demand of a small community is investigated where a floating photovoltaic system and integrated hydrogen production unit are employed. Data are taken from Mumcular Dam located in Aegean Region of Turkey. PvSyst software is used for the simulation purposes. Furthermore, the obtained results are analyzed in the HOMER Pro Software. Photovoltaic (PV) electricity provides the required load and excess electricity to be used in the electrolyzer and to produce hydrogen. Saving lands by preventing their usage in conventional PV farms, saving the water due to reducing evaporation, and compensating the intermittent availability of solar energy are among the obtained results of the study for the considered scenario. Stored hydrogen is used to compensate the electric load through generating electricity by fuel cell. Floating PV (FPV) system decreases the water evaporation of water resources due to 3010 m2 shading area. FPV and Hydrogen Systems provides %99.43 of the electricity demand without any grid connection or fossil fuel usage, where 60.30 MWh/year of 211.94 MWh/year produced electricity is consumed by electric load at $0.6124/kWh levelized cost of electricity (LCOE). 相似文献

Renewable energy resources play a very important rule these days to assist the conventional energy systems for doing its function in the UAE due to high greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and energy demand. In this paper, the analysis and performance of integrated standalone hybrid solar PV, fuel cell and diesel generator power system with battery energy storage system (BESS) or supercapacitor energy storage system (SCESS) in Khorfakkan city, Sharjah were presented. HOMER Pro software was used to model and simulate the hybrid energy system (HES) based on the daily energy consumption for Khorfakkan city. The simulation results show that using SCESS as an energy storage system will help the performance of HES based on the Levelized cost of energy (LCOE) and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The HES with SCESS has renewable fraction (68.1%) and 0.346 $/kWh LCOE. The HES meets the annual AC primary load of the city (13.6 GWh) with negligible electricity excess and with an unmet electrical load of 1.38%. The reduction in GHG emissions for HES with SCESS was 83.2%, equivalent to saving 814,428 gallons of diesel. 相似文献

In this study, it is aimed to meet the annual electricity and heating needs of a house without interruption with the photovoltaic panel, wind turbine, methanol electrolyzer, and high temperature proton exchange membrane fuel cell system. The system results show that the use of the 2 WT with 18 PV was enough to provide the need of the methanol electrolyzer, which provides requirements of the high temperature proton exchange membrane fuel cell. The produced heat by the fuel cell was used to meet the heat requirement of the house with combined heat and power system. Electrical, thermal and total efficiencies of fuel cell system with combined heat and power were obtained as 38.54%, 51.77% and 90%, respectively. Additionally, the levelized cost of energy of the system was calculated as 0.295 $/kWh with combined heat and power application. The results of this study show that H2 is useful for long-term energy storage in off-grid energy systems and that the proposed hybrid system may be the basis for future H2-based alternative energy applications. 相似文献

The objective of this study is to evaluate the technical and economic feasibility of stand-alone hybrid photovoltaic (PV)/battery and PV/battery/fuel cell (FC) power systems for a community center comprising 100 households in Kunming by using the Hybrid Optimization Model for Electric Renewable (HOMER) software. HOMER is used to define the optimum sizing and techno-economic feasibility of the system equipment based on the geographical and meteorological data of the study region. In this study, different hybrid power systems are analyzed to select the optimum energy system while considering total net present cost (NPC) and levelized cost of energy (COE). The results showed that the optimal hybrid PV/battery system comprised 500 kW PV modules, 1200 7.6-kWh battery units, and 500 kW power converters. The proposed system has an initial cost of $6,670,000, an annual operating cost of $82,763/yr, a total NPC of $7,727,992, and a levelized COE of $1.536/kWh. While the PV/battery/FC power system is possible, the cost increases were due to the investment cost of the FC system. The optimal PV/battery/FC system has an initial cost of $6,763,000, an annual operating cost of $82,312/yr, a total NPC of $7,815,223, and a levelized COE of $1.553/kWh. 相似文献

Efficient STEP (solar thermal electrochemical photo) production of hydrogen – an economic assessment
Stuart Licht Olivia Chitayat Harry Bergmann Andrew Dick Hina Ayub Susanta Ghosh 《International Journal of Hydrogen Energy》2010
A consideration of the economic viability of hydrogen fuel production is important in the STEP (Solar Thermal Electrochemical Photo) production of hydrogen fuel. STEP is an innovative way to decrease costs and increase the efficiency of hydrogen fuel production, which is a synergistic process that can use concentrating photovoltaics (CPV) and solar thermal energy to drive a high temperature, low voltage, electrolysis (water-splitting), resulting in H2 at decreased energy and higher solar efficiency. This study provides evidence that the STEP system is an economically viable solution for the production of hydrogen. STEP occurs at both higher electrolysis and solar conversion efficiencies than conventional room temperature photovoltaic (PV) generation of hydrogen. This paper probes the economic viability of this process, by comparing four different systems: (1) 10% or (2) 14% flat plate PV driven aqueous alkaline electrolysis H2 production, (3) 25% CPV driven molten electrolysis H2 production, and (4) 35% CPV driven solid oxide electrolysis H2 production. The molten and solid oxide electrolysers are high temperature systems that can make use of light, normally discarded, for heating. This significantly increases system efficiency. Using levelized cost analysis, this study shows significant cost reduction using the STEP system. The total price per kg of hydrogen is shown to decrease from $5.74 to $4.96 to $3.01 to $2.61 with the four alternative systems. The advanced STEP plant requires less than one seventh of the land area of the 10% flat cell plant. To generate the 216 million kg H2/year required by 1 million fuel cell vehicles, the 35% CPV driven solid oxide electrolysis requires a plant only 9.6 mi2 in area. While PV and electrolysis components dominate the cost of conventional PV generated hydrogen, they do not dominate the cost of the STEP-generated hydrogen. The lower cost of STEP hydrogen is driven by residual distribution and gate costs. 相似文献
