Battery Charge Management for Hybrid PV/Wind/Fuel Cell with Storage Battery.

Hybrid renewable electric energy generation system become essential to the most of electric networks and the stand-alone systems like the water pumping and telecommunication systems. The renewable sources usually required storage system due to change in the power outputs during the day. Due to increase in demand of using batteries, the charging process of battery system needed to be well managed through an adaptive controlled energy managing system. In this paper a standalone system using photovoltaic, wind generation, fuel cell and storage batteries are contributed in supplying the desired load and the charging balance of batteries is achieved by using AI techniques to enhance battery charging controller performance. The main goal of this paper is to design and implement an integrated smart artificial controller, this controller is responsible for controlling both the battery charge voltage using the boost converter and the other controller is to control the charging current of the battery through DC to DC converter using (ANFIS) and (GA) techniques. This study is implemented using MATLAB /Simulink and the results are presented to show the applicability and effieciency of the proposed technique. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
