Performance of hybrid photovoltaic-electrical energy storage systems for power supply to buildings 157 This section summarizes the recent research progress on widely used PV-EES technologies, which can be 158 applied to the building power supply. Fig. 4 shows the review framework of the recent research progress on the system
Hybrid photovoltaic-electric vehicle energy storage system The EV (Electric Vehicle) is an emerging technology to realize energy storage for PV, which is promising to make considerable contribution to facilitating PV penetration and increasing energy efficiency given its mass production .
Hybrid photovoltaic-hydrogen energy storage system HES (Hydrogen Energy Storage) is one of important energy storage technologies as it is almost completely environment-friendly and applicable to many economic sectors besides EES . It is a promising candidate leading to a low carbon hydrogen economy .
3.2.1. Hybrid photovoltaic-battery energy storage system With the descending cost of battery, BES (Battery Energy Storage) is developing in a high speed towards the commercial utilization in building . Batteries store surplus power generation in the form of chemical energy driven by external voltage across the negative and positive electrodes.
Literature first proposed the reconfigurable topology of the battery, in which the system reconfiguration could be achieved through five control switches per cell. In the series topology, each battery cell had only two controllable switches, which were used to connect other cells in series or bypass .
As increasement of the clean energy capacity, lithium-ion battery energy storage systems (BESS) play a crucial role in addressing the volatility of renewable energy sources. However, the efficient operation of these systems relies on optimized system topology, effective power allocation strategies, and accurate state of charge (SOC) estimation.
First, a new type of BS topology is proposed, which can greatly improve the reliability and economy of the system when single or multiple battery cells fail. Compared with the conventional topology, the maximum number of faulty battery cells that the new topology can bear and the economic gains will increase.
Assuming that there are four clusters of batteries in parallel, when the centralized PCS topology is adopted, BS is connected to the power grid through a PCS, and the system operating reliability is 0.9986.
