The objective of this paper is to optimize the energy consumption and performance of fuel cell electric bicycles (FCEBs) under specific key input parameters. The paper applied an integrated method that includes an artificial neural network (ANN) and genetic algorithm (GA) to forecast and identify an optimal performance and energy consumption of FCEBs. The simulation model of FCEBs is established and simulated in MATLAB-Simulink environment to generate 1000 data points, that are used for training, validating, testing artificial neural network, the ANN architecture containing five input neurons, two hidden neurons and two output neurons, respectively. Furthermore, the GA is integrated to find the maximum performance and energy consumption once the ANN has exactly been trained. The study found that the FCEB configuration can achieve an effective performance at 30.3 km/h with required power of 210.4 W under speed level_5, radius of wheel 0.39 m, frontal area 0.423 m2, slope grade 0%. In order to validate and verify the simulated results, the experimental approach method was conducted in the same condition. The experimental results fit well with the simulated results in the same initial input parameters. • A method integrating the artificial neural network with genetic algorithm is applied. • The consumed power and fuel cell voltage are optimized by combining artificial neural network and genetic algorithm (ANN-GA). • The effective performance area of fuel cell electric bicycle under various a structure and operating parameters is identified. • Deep-learning results reflect major physical mechanism of fuel cell electric bicycle operation.
