Optimal Sizing and Control of a Hybrid PV-Hydrogen System for Off-Grid Applications
the Optimal Sizing and Control of a Hybrid PV-Hydrogen System for Off-Grid Applications presented in this paper is a new application for remote areas and off-grid communities, which typically fall outside the scope of traditional approaches. Using photovoltaic (PV) panels and hydrogen fuel cells, this system combines two renewable energy sources to generate electricity at a stable and reliable level. This paper uses and reviews an AC/SC hybrid system under various scenarios to find the most suitable sizing and control method for that system, considering weather conditions, load requisites, and available resources. It features a hybrid system that generates electricity from solar energy using PV panels during the day and storing excess energy via electrolysis in the form of hydrogen. That hydrogen is stored for powering fuel cells at night or when sunlight is absent. To determine the right size of PV essentially is one part, and to seek out the solution to best match the size and desired type no one best control strategy, in addition by PV, which should be subsistence easily and the proposed method was up combined with mathematical model, optimization algorithm as posed earlier for varying load. The findings of this study will not just provide energy solutions cost-effectively and sustainably for remote off-grid communities. Still, they can propel the advancement of these renewable Energy systems.
