A fuel cell/secondary battery hybrid power generation system could extend well beyond the efficiency and interoperability of the conventional diesel generator. The suggested power source system consists of 2.3 kW class PEMFC, 100 Ah lithium polymer battery, and two DC/DC converters by serial connection type. It was known that interoperability of sub-systems is the key factor for stable and optimal control of the hybrid power generation system. The modeling and simulation methods have been proposed to reduce the number of configurations and performance tests for components selection and select the optimized control condition of the power generation system. The control model for power source system is implemented based on the empirical formulation and carried out in the Matlab/Simulink environment. The results show that the simulation can be used to establish the algorism of prototype and increase the durability of the power source system.

This study is to develop a 1kW-class small wind turbine blade which will be applicable to relatively low speed regions. For this blade, a high efficiency wind turbine blade is designed and a light and low cost composite structure blade is adopted considering fatigue life. In this study, shape design of 1kW-class small wind turbine blade for hybrid power generation system is carried out by BEMT(blade element momentum theory). X-FOIL open software was used to acquire lift and drag coefficients of the 2D airfoils used in power prediction procedure. Moreover, pressure and velocity distributions are investigated according to TSR by CFD analysis.

In this paper, a hybrid power system with photovoltaic/wind/diesel generators is proposed to solve the defect of stand-alone type power system in a remote area. A hybrid power system has a power-balanced controller to equilibrate generation power with a given load demand and which is composed of common DC power system. To execute a power-balanced control, a hybrid power system is assumed that all of power generators have the characteristics of an equivalent current-source and load sharing control technique must be needed at the same time. So this paper discusses the structure of power-balance control for hybrid power system. And through the results of simulation, the proposed scheme was verified.

The simple PSK signal generation method using a quadrature hybrid coupler and reflection coefficient elements was analyzed in this paper. The PSK modulation signal with a constant constellation is generated by reflection coefficient from 90o hybrid coupler output ports, the high-mode PSK signal is also generated by the hybrid structure of coupler, delay line and power combiner. The BPSK signal is simply generated by a 90o hybrid coupler and reflection elements, and QPSK with 90o phase constellation is generated by additional delay line and power combiner. By simulation results, the generated PSK signals by the proposed circuit get good modulation spectra within 3o phase error.

KIER have been developing high-temperature solar technology, especially the solar thermal power generation system, since the early of 1990s. In 1994, the first research on high temperature solar technology started with PTC technology. At the moment the most advanced 10kW dish system is under demonstration for 10kW solar thermal power generation. Test results showed about 19.2% solar to electricity average efficiency. Another research activities of KIER is hybrid power generation. For hybridization, solar and LFG(landfill gas) are used. Another hybrid solar system is with solar chemical reaction. In this system, power unit is gas turbine, and the heat content of fuel(like natual gas) is upgraded by solar energy through chemical reaction. The latest project on solar thermal power generation is for 1 MW power tower system. This is the Korea-China Joint project.

Recently, the use of renewable energy has been increasing to achieve carbon neutrality. The concept of a zero-energy building is also attracting attention. In this study, a preliminary study was conducted to analyze the feasibility of a hybrid wind and solar power generation system between buildings that utilize the building wind generated by the Venturi effect. For this purpose, the wind speed and sunshine hours were monitored in the area where the building wind blows by the Venturi effect, and the power generation depending on system types, areas, and season was estimated. Consequently, the wind power generation system showed a larger amount of power per area than solar power. The wind power systems can generate larger power if wind power blades are installed along the height of the building. As a preliminary study, this study verified the feasibility of the system utilizing building wind and suggested follow-up studies.

Photovoltaic energy and wind energy are very in constant depending on the season, time and extremely intermittent energy sources. Because of these reasons, in view of the reliability the solar and the wind generation system have many problems(energy conversion, energy storage, load control etc.) comparing with a conventional power plant. So, in order to solve these existing problems, hybrid generation system of photovoltaic(500W) and wind power(400W), which combines wind power energy and solar energy to have effect of supporting each other, was suggested. But hybrid generation system cannot always generate stable output with weather condition, the auxiliary power compensation apparatus that uses elastic energy of spiral spring to hybrid generation system was also added for the present study. And it may confirm that power was continuously provided to load by storing energy obtained from generating rotary energy of spiral spring generates in small scale generator.

Marine facilities like buoy, lighthouse are operated with stand alone power supply system. This power system can consist of a stand-alone type power system such as PV(Photovoltaic) system, wave system or hybrid system which is not cooperated with a commercial power system. Generally, PV power system for marine facilities can not supply a sufficient power to buoy, because it is so influenced from weather condition. For solving this problem the hybrid power system with PV and wave is studied on a various area, that is why a hybrid power system is requires to overcome these problems. This paper will describe a generation characteristic of WEC(Wave Energy Converter) for buoy, and an AFS(Anti-Fouling System) influence on WEC.
