This paper presents the modeling of a Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC) implemented in PSCAD/EMTDC for steady and transient regimes applying equivalent electrical circuits. The model considers the activation, concentration and ohmic losses, dissipated as heat, of a PEMFC fuel cell, as well its thermodynamic behavior. In addition, this paper reviews the key concepts related to fuel cells, their operating mode and applications. Simulations are carried out under different load conditions to analyze the PEMFC model response, as well as series and parallel associations to increase the power supply. The results obtained from the model simulations are compared to experimental data retrieved from the literature.

This chapter is concerned with the energy management of a hybrid micro-grid composed of photovoltaic/ wind/ battery bank and diesel generator, which is used to supply domestic loads. Hence, a control strategy is proposed to manage the power flow between the power sources and the loads, which ensures the maximization of the renewable sources use, and therefore the minimization of the battery bank and diesel generator use. The control strategy allows the installation operating cost to be minimized and the safe operating for the battery bank to be guaranteed. The strategy is tested using measured data of some climatic parameters of the target area, showing its efficiency in fulfilling the fixed objectives.

Coupling of a Long Term System (LTS) with a Short Term System (STS) of a hydrogen-based microgrid is considered here in this work to control the operation of a set of electrolyzers that produce hydrogen from renewable energies. Both systems are based on Model Predictive Control (MPC) ideas. The LTS manages the on/off conditions of the electrolyzers taking into account control and prediction horizons in terms of hours (high level control), regulating the operation point of the devices using meteorological predictions. The STS adapts in a low-level control the behavior of the electrolyzers with the rest of the components of the microgrid (battery and ultracapacitor). The plant is modeled in the Mixed Logic Dynamic (MLD) framework due to the presence of logical states such as the start-up/shut down of the electrolyzers and charge/discharge states in the battery and ultracapacitor. These systems are validated in a simulation showing the adequate operation of the components of the microgrid.

Costly battery energy storage are used in photovoltaic water pumping systems to ensure the power supply continuity and the system autonomy. However, the question of designing an optimum, economic and reliable system has not been fully answered. This research work proposes a smart sizing approach of a photovoltaic water pumping system components destined to Tomatoes irrigation. The system elements sizes namely the photovoltaic modules’ surface, the battery bank capacity and the reservoir volume, are designed to save energy generated in excess, supply the water pump and ensure the system autonomy. Fluctuations occurrence, number of successive cloudy days and energetic losses are taken into account when designing. A theoretical analysis was carried out to assess the relation between the photovoltaic modules surface, the battery bank capacity and the water volume needed for the crops irrigation during the crops’ vegetative cycle (from March to July). Additionally, the sizing algorithm results have been validated using PVsyst tool, which shows the efficiency of the obtained sizing. The economic sensitivity analysis for these water pumping systems in three countries, which are Tunisia, Spain and Qatar showed that photovoltaic-batteries/pump system shows that these systems are reliable and economic for both developing and developed countries.

Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFC) present many advantages to generate electricity from natural gas, such as high efficiency, and little noise. However, the most important advantage of SOFC is its ability to operate at high temperatures. Their high operating temperature makes possible to use natural gas as fuel, so external hydrogen is not necessary for operation. In addition, in hybrid systems with cogeneration, the SOFC can be combined with micro gas turbine (MGT) to generate more power for the same amount of fuel. This cogeneration is interesting for power generation, from few kilowatts, for residences and commercial buildings, until megawatts as in plants for electric power generation, or industries. The study presented hear shows the increased efficiency when a MGT is integrated into the system to take advantage of exhaust gases of the SOFC.

This research chapter is concerned with the control of a photovoltaic powered plant connected to a single-phase grid. The system is equipped with dc–dc converters, which allow the panels' maximum power point to be tracked, and the voltage at their terminals to be regulated. Power is injected into the grid using an adequate control of a single-phase inverter connected to a filter and loads. In this research chapter, the active and reactive powers are controlled using the Voltage Oriented Control strategy, taking into account the grid and the loads characteristics. The control strategy is tested by simulation, and the obtained results prove its performance even under solar radiation change.

A proposal for energy management in an off-grid photovoltaic pumping and irrigation system is presented and evaluated for a specific case study. The system is assumed to be based on off-the-shelf components (photovoltaic panels, battery banks, DC/AC converters, relays, submergible pumps, etc.), with a microcontroller-based energy management system, deciding when to disconnect the load from the photovoltaic panels or the battery, or the battery from the photovoltaic panels. The aim is to reduce the battery bank us, but always fulfilling the irrigation demand. Using a specific case study (for tomatoes irrigation in Tunisia), the proposal is evaluated, showing that it fulfills the irrigation water demand, using the batteries only when really needed.

Reverse Osmosis desalination process supplied by Photovoltaic Thermal collectors presents a practical method for water desalination [1]. It is shown that the control of the circulated fluid rate ameliorates the system productivity. Photovoltaic Thermal collector combines between heat and electric energy production. In addition, the fluid flow rate variation inside the collector ducts decreases photovoltaic cells temperature. Feed water temperature is increased by the produced heat in order to improve the Reverse Osmosis unit productivity. The system control serves also to prevent overheating Photovoltaic cells and stored water in the boiler. In this paper, a Fuzzy Logic Controller is designed to achieve these objectives. The controller effectiveness is validated using LABVIEW.

In this paper, an energy management study of a photovoltaic-windsystem for a non-controllable load supply is presented. The control methodology decides on the switching between the installation' components. The decision is made by an energy management algorithm that depends on the photovoltaic power, the wind turbine power, the battery' bank state of charge and the load demand. The algorithm aims to ensure the system' autonomy, a continuous load supply and a safe operation for the battery' bank. For this, first, a TOR and a Fuzzy algorithm are explained and used to decide on the connection of the installation' components. The obtained results shows the efficiency of Fuzzy logic in maximizing the use of the renewable energy and ensuring a safe operating for the battery 'bank.
