Depending on how the energy storage system(ESS) is used in a system that can construct a microgrid by using an independent power source such as campus, surplus power can be generated that can not be charged to the ESS. For example, assuming that heat is supplied by a fuel cell in the case of a system in which thermal self-sustaining is prioritized, the fuel cell capacity required differs depending on the heat load. The amount of surplus power that can not be stored in the ESS will appear differently depending on the load operation of the fuel cell for each cycle. This power is hydrogenated through a water electrolytic device to present the amount of hydrogen energy that can be operated for each cycle. Therefore, this paper propose the possibility of utilizing University campus as a hydrogen station.

Zn-ion supercapacitors (ZICs) show high energy densities with long cycling life for use in electronic devices. Porous Zn electrodes as anodes for ZICs are fabricated by chemical etching process using optimized conditions. The structures, morphologies, chemical bonding states, porous structure, and electrochemical behavior are examined. The optimized porous Zn electrode shows a root mean square of roughness of 173 nm and high surface area of $153{\mu}m^2$. As a result, ZIC using the optimized porous Zn electrode presents excellent electrochemical performance with high specific capacitance of $399F\;g^{-1}$ at current density of $0.5A\;g^{-1}$, high-rate performance ($79F\;g^{-1}$ at a current density of $10.0A\;g^{-1}$), and outstanding cycling stability (99 % after 1,500 cycles). The development of energy storage performance using synergistic effects of high roughness and high surface area is due to increased electroactive sites by surface functionalization of Zn electrode. Thus, our strategy will lead to a rational design and contribute to next-generation supercapacitors in the near future.

This paper describes the Utility Interactive PV (UIPV) system which can improve the peak-cut effect by adding an energy storage device of batteries to the power converter. The proposed system has three possible operation modes depending on relative condition of PV output, which can have the power shaping function covering the peak power for 3 hours. A new power circuit and an application algorithm have been applied to the UIPV system which is based on working PV system during a 3-hour peak time. The energy relationship by the proposed system is analyzed theoretically and experimentally. The proposed system is evaluated at the viewpoint of cost and total spacing, which enables the proposed UIPV system to have the reduction of the peak power demand and hence to improve the power capacity of peak cut.

Recently, the mass production of Energy storage system (ESS) is actively perform around world. Energy storage system is a technique that stores power to energy storage device to supply energy into grid and load at peak-load. Therefore, the efficient energy management is available by using ESS system. The life of Lithium-ion battery is varied corresponding to the power usage, especially selected depth of discharge (DOD). The lifetime of battery is the one of the most issue of the ESS system because of its stability and reliability. Therefore, lifetime management of battery and power converter of ESS module is required. In this paper, the battery lifetime management method estimating residual power and lifetime of lithium ion battery of ESS system is proposed. Also, total avenue prediction of ESS system is simulated considering the total lifetime of battery.

A family of non-isolated DC-DC three-port converters (TPCs) that allows for a more flexible power flow among a renewable energy source, an energy storage device and a current-reversible DC bus is introduced. Most of the reported non-isolated topologies in this area consider only a power consuming load. However, for applications such as hybrid-electric vehicle braking systems and DC microgrids, the load power generating capability should also be considered. The proposed three-port family consists of one unidirectional port and two bi-directional ports. Hence, they are well-suited for photovoltaic (PV)-battery-DC bus systems from the power flow viewpoint. Three-port converters are derived by combining different commonly known power converters in an integrated manner while considering the voltage polarity, voltage levels among the ports and the overall voltage conversion ratio. The derived converter topologies are able to allow for seven different modes of operation among the sources and load. A three-port converter which integrates a boost converter with a buck converter is used as a design example. Extensions of these topologies by combining the soft-switching technique with the proposed design example are also presented. Experiment results are given to verify the proposed three-port converter family and its analysis.

To design the effective usage of electric double layer capacitors (EDLCs) used for a storage device of dye sensitized solar cell(DSC) energy, we first investigated the accumulation state of electrical charges and the charge behavior in the EDLCs. Based on the results. the voltage characteristics of EDLCs connected to DSC energy were evaluated. The results showed that the charge accumulation region concentrated on central part of the carbonaceous electrode in EDLCs and the required times for charging and discharging were almost the same.

Today it becomes a serious problem to exhaustion of a fossil fuel and air pollution by exhaust gases from road vehicles for environment preservation. To solve this problem, the developments of a hybrid vehicle have been processed for the purpose of reducing pollution and energy-savings. By the way, flywheel hybrid vehicle using variable pump/motor was proposed as one feasible hybrid system in place of hybrid vehicle system by the conventional storage battery. The proposed flywheel hybrid vehicle is composed of an accumulator or a flywheel as the energy generation and storage source and three variable hydraulic pump/motor as the energy transfer device. Flywheel has the characteristic of high...

기존의 IoT 센서 노드는 배터리로부터 에너지를 공급받아 동작하는데, 넓게 분포되어 다양한 정보를 수집해야 하는 센서 노드의 특성상, 주기적으로 배터리를 새로 교체해야 하는 단점이 존재한다. 이 단점을 극복하기 위해 에너지 하베스팅 시스템을 통해 태양광이나 고온 증기 등으로부터 에너지를 수확할 수 있다. 하지만, 기존의 에너지 하베스팅 시스템은 공급전력이 상당히 제한적이기 때문에 통신과 같이 순간적으로 높은 전력을 요구하는 어플리케이션을 활용하기가 어렵다. 이 논문에서 우리가 제안하는 고출력 에너지 하베스팅 시스템은 기존 에너지 하베스팅의 단점을 보완한 Switch Control Unit을 설계하여 수확된 에너지양과 어플리케이션 동작 모드에 따라 수확된 에너지를 에너지 저장장치에 저장하거나 수확 및 저장된 에너지를 순간적으로 모두 어플리케이션에서 사용할 수 있도록 구상하였다. 제안한 시스템을 검증하기 위해 태양광을 기반으로 한 에너지 하베스팅 시스템을 구현하였으며 각각의 동작 모드에 따라 어플리케이션에 공급하는 전력량과 에너지 저장장치의 용량에 따른 최대 공급 시간을 확인하였다.

모빌리티 기술의 급격한 성장으로 산업 분야의 수요는 차량 내에 다양한 장비와 센서의 데이터를 안정적으로 처리할 수 있는 저장장치를 요구하고 있다. NAND 플래시 메모리는 외부에 강한 충격뿐만 아니라 저전력, 빠른 데이터 처리 속도의 장점이 있기 때문에 모빌리티 환경의 저장장치로 활용되고 있다. 그러나 플래시 메모리는 고온에 장기 노출될 경우 데이터 손상이 발생할 수 있는 특징이 있다. 따라서 태양 복사열 등 날씨나 외부 열원에 의한 고온 노출이 빈번한 모빌리티 환경에서는 온도를 관리하기 위한 전용 시스템이 필요하다. 본 논문은 모빌리티 환경에서 저장장치 온도 관리하기 위한 전용 온도 관리 시스템을 설계한다. 설계한 온도 관리 시스템은 전통적인 공기 냉각 방식과 수 냉각방식의 기술을 하이브리드로 적용하였다. 냉각 방식은 저장장치의 온도에 따라 적응형으로 동작하도록 설계하였으며, 온도 단계가 낮을 경우 동작하지 않도록 설계하여 에너지 효율을 높였다. 마지막으로 실험을 통해 각 냉각방식과 방열재질의 차이 따른 온도 차이를 분석하였고, 온도 관리 정책이 성능을 유지하는데 효과가 있음을 증명하였다.

A self-charging supercapacitor is constructed through simple integration of the energy storage and photo exited materials at the photo electrode. The large band gap of $NiO/Fe_3O_4$ heterostructure generates photo electron at the photo electrode and store the charges through redox mechanism at the counter electrode. Sulfanilic acid azocromotrop/reduced graphene oxide layer at the photo electrode trapped the photo generated hole and store the charge by forming double layer. The solar supercapacitor device is charged within 400 s up to 0.5 V and exhibited a high specific capacitance of ~908 F/g against 1.5 A/g load. The solar illuminated supercapacitor shows a high energy and power density of 33.4 Wh/kg and 385 W/kg along with a very low relaxation time of ~15 ms ensuring the utility of the self charging device in the various field of energy storage and optoelectronic application.
