The systems associated with the ESS never stop. It runs 24 hours everyday. The system must be managed to run. The ESS system should perform normally even if the power IT equipment fails or communication failure occurs. Therefore, there is a need for a system that actively addresses, manages and controls the high precision power data of the ESS, even if a variety of failures occur. I would like to propose a power management communication unit to cope with the occurrence of communication failure. This paper also includes an integrated management system that can perform micro grid site management, maintenance and monitoring for the ESS system connected with the solar power generation facility.

This paper studies the OF-LED(Optical Fiber-LED) illuminated display board system for energy saving. The OF-LED illuminated display board system has PV module, batteries, charge 8t discharge system and dynamic full color display controller. Both maximum power point tracker (MPPT) and constant current & constant voltage controls (CCVC) are used to govern the charging system. This system. improves the charging efficiency of battery. The system is compact and operates only by PV except the rainy days when the sun is unfavorable. in the system display control and charging-discharging control by on-chip microprocessor are simultaneously carried out. To verify the unposed system, me simulation and experiment results show the operating characteristics with a laboratory prototype.

An applicability microencapsulation, using electroless copper plating, of hydrogen storage alloy powder as an anode material for nickel-hydrogen secondary batteries was investigated. Alloys employed were $LaNi_{4.7}Al_{0.3}$ and $MmNi_{4.5}Al_{0.5}$(Mm=mischmetal) which have an appropriate equilibrium pressure and capacity. The microencapsulation of the alloy powder was found to accelerate initial activation of electrodes and to increase capacity which is about 285mAh/g for $LaNi_{4.7}Al_{0.3}$. In addition, other charge and discharge characteristics, such as polarization and flatness of charge and discharge potential, were improved due to the role of copper layer as a microcurrent collector and an oxidation barrier of the alloy powder. $MmNi_{4.5}Al_{0.5}$ alloy showed lower capacity than $LaNi_{4.7}Al_{0.3}$ because of higher equilibrium pressure. Cyclic characteristics of both alloys were somewhat poor because of mainly shedding and partial oxidation of alloy powder during the cycling. However, it was considered that the microencapsulation method is effective to improve the performances of the hydrogen storage alloy electrodes.

The battery industries have been developed to the implementation of lithium ion secondary cell from the cell of Ni/Cd and Ni/MH in the past to be asked of an age of high technology from low technology. Also in resent the polymeric cell to get a good high function with an age of new advanced information system is changed from the 21 century to the secondary batteries society. The properties of lithium secondary batteries have the high energy density, the long cycle time, the low self discharge area and the high active voltage. The wanted properties of secondary batteries for the motion of an apparatuses of industries of an high skill age have a small type trend of the energy density and it is become with a strong asking of the industrial society market about the storable medium of the convenience and new power energy. The electrochemical properties is researched for the cell to be synthesised and crystallized the positive active material LiMnO2 of the secondary cell at 9250C to get a new improved data of the electric discharge for that the capacitance of the LiMnO2 thin film that is improving and researching with the properties and a merit and demerit in the this kind of asking.

Electric power trains receive electric power from overhead cables via a pantograph system. Power collector system in trains increase the cross section of tunnel and require a massive coreless filter reactor in propulsion inverter because of the power disturbance by contact loss phenomenon of a train. In this paper we proposed a wireless train which can run to next station with charging energy of ultra-capacitor module block. We designed DC-DC converter to charge and discharge ultra-capacitor modules by using Next Train running test results and confirm the feasibility of the proposed system through simulation.

Recently, parallel operation of dc-dc converters has been widely used in distributed power systems. In this paper, a control method to achieve parallel operation of three-phase bi-directional isolated interleaved dc-dc converters is discussed for the battery charging and discharging system which consists of the 32 battery charger/dischargers and two three-phase bi-directional isolated interleaved dc-dc converters. In the boost mode, the battery energy is delivered to the grid, whereas the grid energy is transferred to the battery in the buck mode operation. The average current sharing control method is employed to obtain an equal conducting of each phase current in the three-phase dc-dc converter. By using the proposed method, the imbalance factor is gratefully reduced from 8 percent to 1 percent. Two 2.5kW three-phase bi-directional dc-dc converter prototype have been built and the proposed method has been verified through experiments.

This paper deals with novel soft-switching method for a bidirectional DC-DC converter in battery charging and discharging system. The proposed soft-switching method provides ZVS and ZCS at turn-on, and ZVS at turn-off of the switch in both charging and discharging operation modes. The soft switching condition can be obtained in wide load range, and provide low switching loss as well as low voltage spike at turn-off of the switch. Proposed method is analyzed in charging and discharging mode. Simulation and experimental results validate the usefulness of the proposed soft-switching method.

독립형 태양광 발전시스템은 태양전지, 배터리, 충 방전 제어기, 컨버터, 부하로 나눌 수 있다. 태양광 발전은 비선형 전압전류 특성을 가지고 있기 때문에 발전효율을 최대한 높이기 위해 최대전력추종제어(MPPT)를 하게된다. 또한 부하가 여러 개일 경우에는 다양한 출력이 요구되는데, 이를 위해 강압 및 승압이 가능한 컨버터가 필요하게 된다. 그러나 다중부하에는 다수의 컨버터와 각각의 컨버터를 제어하기 위한 제어기가 필요하게 되므로 cost가 증가요인이 된다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 승 강압에 의한 다중출력을 갖는 병렬구조의 DC-DC컨버터를 제안하고자 한다. 제안된 컨버터는 입력전압을 승 강압하여 두 개의 출력전압을 갖는다. 강압동작은 일반적인 buck형 컨버터에 커패시터를 추가하여 구성하였고, 승압을 위해서는 리플율이 적은 Coupling inductor를 이용하고 커패시터를 추가하여 두 개의 컨버터를 병렬로 구성하였다. 컨버터의 병렬제어를 위해 제어기를 설계하고 이를 시뮬레이션 하였다.
