  • Rapid population growth with high living standards and high electronics use for personal comfort has raised the electricity demand exponentially. To fulfill this elevated demand, conventional energy sources are shifting towards low production cost and long term usable alternative energy sources. Hybrid renewable energy systems (HRES) are becoming popular as stand-alone power systems for providing electricity in remote areas due to advancement in renewable energy technologies and subsequent rise in prices of petroleum products. Wind and solar power are considered feasible replacement to fossil fuels as the prediction of the fuel shortage in the near future, forced all operators involved in energy production to explore this new and clean source of power. Presented paper proposes fuzzy logic based Energy Management System (EMS) for Wind Turbine (WT), Photo Voltaic (PV) and Diesel Generator (DG) hybrid micro-grid configuration. Battery backup system is introduced for worst environmental conditions or high load demands. Dump load along with dump load controller is implemented for over voltage and over speed protection. Fuzzy logic based supervisory control system performs the power flow control between different scenarios such as battery charging, battery backup, dump load activation and DG backup in most intellectual way.

  • Among various types of photo-electric energy conversion element which can transfer solar energy into electric energy through the photo voltaic effect, Si solar cells were investigated on photoelectric characteristics, improvements of its efficiency and economical evaluation for its production cost. To study the above subjects, we decided best conditions on fabricating of thin film Si solar cell by epitaxial growth and knew that the thin solar cell by epitaxial growth was more efficient than that by diffusion process. And also higher photo voltaic output was obtained as a effect of SiO as antireflection coating by several methods, i.e. vacuum evaporating techniques of electrode to decrease the contact resistance and to form best ohmic contact, and concentration techniques of sun's ray by lenz or both-sided illumination through special structure for reflection using mirrors.

  • In order to investigate the photo-electric property in $VO_2$ film grown by a sol-gel method, the currents generated by the light irradiation and nonirradiation were measured as functions of the bias voltage and the temperature. From the result, the generated current in the film changed with the light irradiation and nonirradiation, and it gradually increased with the bias voltage. In particular, the maximum current was generated at $50^{\circ}C$ under the light irradiation; the temperature is lower comparing the MIT (metal-insulator transition) temperature in $VO_2$. This result indicates that $VO_2$ shows the photo-voltaic effect, and so that, it is expected that the $VO_2$ film is applied for a photo-voltaic device.

  • This paper presents the analysis of connected operation of photo voltaic source and Li energy storage system. The micro-grid has been installed and operated for several years at the campus of USF and has been a role of test bed. Photo voltaic source has been strongly influenced by the location, weather and climate of a installed area and Li battery is connected directly to the photo voltaic source to compensate for the limitations. The Li battery is operated to supply power output to the grid by the charging or discharging mode based on the average power output of the PV source which is calculated from monitored data for several years. The load of the PV and Li battery system is operated as a severe loading condition and the operating characteristics of PV source and Li battery are analyzed in detail. In connected operations of PV and Li battery to power system, the PV and Li battery is operated to supply constant power during only day time or peak time to increase load shedding ratio and efficient usage of generation sources in power system.

  • This paper has dealt with the probability of oyster shell desiccant cooling system driven by renewable energy of photo-voltaic effect. For this, fundamental experiments have been carried out focusing on the observation of dehumidifying effect of oyster shell and peltier elements used for air conditioning system. From this study, it is found that oyster shell has sufficient probability for using as a desiccant in air-conditioning system. Moreover, the heat releasing device(peltier element) can be used with direct current from PV cells so the system can be operated with high efficiency. As a result, the absolute humidity in a test chamber was reasonably controlled by oyster shell and peltier elements. Also the photo-voltaic energy from sun was enough for running power of this system.

  • This paper is shows the configuration of the maximum power tracking control of Photo-voltaic and battery charge system. Up to now, the chopper system had the problem which a battery become a short life by reason of discontinuity of output current and its energy reduce. But in this paper, We propose the chopper system which maintain the successive output current and at the same time, control the maximum output location by change time-ratio using tracking of energy variation that occur because of the varied volume of insolation per a day and temperature.
