The research on solar energy that we get from nature to cope with energy exhaustion is a very significant and inevitable task for us to do. Along with this, lately, in Korea, as part of new growth engine industry regarding low-carbon green growth, we have selected the LED(Light Emitting Diode) as low power consuming, eco-friendly lighting equipment and have been facilitating research and development on it and creating a variety of new industries utilizing it. What was developed here in this research was the photovoltaic LED lighting system applying lithium polymer batteries equipped with the excellent performance of lithium ion batteries as well as significantly low explosive hazard. Its photovoltaic panel was made to have 100W capacity, and for its power supply system, functional convenience was considered so that it could be equipped with both DC and AC power to be used as household electricity in a variety of ways.

A new high power density and low cost Photovoltaic Power Conditioning System (PV PCS) with energy storage system is proposed. Its high power density and cost effectiveness can be achieved through the unification of the maximum power point tracker and battery charger/discharger. Despite of the reduced power stage, the proposed system can achieve the same performances of maximum power point tracking and battery charging/discharging as the conventional system. Moreover, the high voltage stress across the link-capacitor can be relieved through the series-connected link-capacitor with the battery. Therefore, a large number of series/parallel-connected link-capacitors can be reduced by 4-times. Especially, when the utility power failure happens, both photovoltaic and battery energies can be supplied to the load with only one power stage. Therefore, it features a simpler structure, less mass, lower cost, and fewer devices. Finally, to confirm the operation, validity, and features of the proposed system, theoretical analysis and experimental results from a single phase AC 220Vrms/1.5kW prototype are presented.

This study is to demonstrate the superiority and stability of the solar - wind power hybrid power generation system for street lamps using super capacitor EDLC(:Electric Double Layer Capacitor). It is aiming to apply the lighting device using LED light source as the load of solar-wind power hybrid power generation system for independent power source and to develop the street light system device with high output power generation system. Unlike conventional controllers, EDLC, which is used as an auxiliary device for storing the developed power in the battery, can guarantee the high output and long life of the battery.

본 논문에서는 소형 독립형 태양광발전시스템의 충방전제어 시스템을 구성하였으며 충방전 특성을 고찰하였다. 태양전지의 정격전압이 축전지의 충전전압보다 높으므로 충방전제어는 Buck 컨버터로 설계하였으며, 정전압 충전방식을 이용하였다. 또한 온도보상회로를 통하여 축전지의 충전전압에 대한 온도 보정을 하였다. 충방전제어 시스템의 특성을 고찰하기 위하여 170W급 독립형 태양광발전시스템을 구성하였으며 출력특성을 고찰한 결과 충전 및 방전이 원활히 진행됨을 알 수 있었으나 충전시 정전압 충전방식을 사용하였고 태양전지 출력측에 MPPT제어가 이루어 지지 않은 탓으로 태양전지 이용율이 떨어지는 단점이 있다는 것을 확인하였다.

The International Maritime Organization (IMO) adopted the International Convention on the Control of Ships' Air Pollutants and Discharge as it became interested in environmental issues such as global warming and air pollution. In addition, a special bill on the improvement of air quality, including in port areas, has recently been enacted in Korea to reduce the amount of fine dust generated. As part of such fine dust reduction measures, feasibility studies have been underway on converting diesel engines into battery electric propulsion systems that do not cause fine dust and emissions. Since the battery electric propulsion system can easily utilize renewable energy sources, and does not generate exhaust gas due to combustion of fuel, small coastal ferries with battery electric propulsion systems that use renewable energy have been operating in Europe and the U.S. for several years. However, they have not been introduced in Korea. Therefore, in this study, we selected small coastal ferries in Korea as target ferries, and performed simulations to study the applicability of electric propulsion with batteries linked to solar power systems. Based on the results, we want to confirm the applicability of battery electric propulsion.

A stand-alone Photovoltaic (PV) system is one of the most important energy system for Mongolian nomadic herders. Basically, a stand-alone PV system uses two DC-DC converters. This makes the system costly, size bigger and difficult to move from one place to another place for the nomadic herders. A combined control algorithm for charging the battery using Stage of Charge (SOC) and Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) is proposed in this paper. The batteries are charged by the three stage method; bulk, absorption and float charge. In the bulk stage used the MPPT function in this study. The performance of the proposed control algorithm is evaluated in both steady and changing weather conditions. The results are obtained using PSIM software. The results obtained in this paper are useful in designing a stand-alone PV system in the rural life like Mongolian nomadic herders.

With the recent increase in the proportion of single-person households, the demand for reasonable personal mobility has increased, and the "Personal Mobility" industry that can be used conveniently and concisely has grown rapidly. In fact, according to data from the Korea Transport Institute, the scale of the electric kickboards rental industry, one of the personal mobility industry sectors, is expected to expand to 200,000 units in 2022. Due to the characteristics of electric kickboards that are powered by electricity, stable and efficient battery supply is the most basic and important issue. According to recent reviews from users who have used the electric kickboard, there were cases where the use of the electric kickboard is attempted, but the battery is in a discharged state or the battery charge level is low and thus cannot be used. Therefore, this paper proposes a solar charging system for stable battery use of electric kickboards. When this system is applied, it is expected that it will not only be an eco-friendly charging method for electric kickboards, but also stably supply and demand batteries while driving.
