报告主要内容:

Three current research projects into renewable energy-energystorage systems shall be described. The first project is pertainingto aproposed statistical approach to the design of abattery-supercapacitor hybrid energy storage system to achievepower dispatch control of wind farm. The design exploits thetechnical merits of the two energy storage mediums, in terms of thedifferences in their specific power and energy densities, and theirability to accommodate different rates of change in thecharging/discharging powers. By treating the input wind power asrandom and using a proposed coordinated power flows controlstrategy for the battery and the supercapacitor, the approachevaluates the energy storage capacities, the corresponding expectedlife cycle cost/year of the storage mediums, and the expectedcost/year of un-met power dispatch. A computational procedure isthen developed for the design of the least-cost/yearhybrid energystorage system to realize wind power dispatch at specifiedconfidence level.

The next project is on the design of a series-connectedphotovoltaic generator (SPVG) capable of enhancing power quality.Analysis of SPVG operations under disturbance conditions showsexplicitly how achievable network voltage quality is affected bythe SPVG apparent power rating, and that voltage quality can besignificantly improved even with a modest level of energy storagecapacity incorporated in the SPVG. A control system for the SPVG isalso proposed. Both simulation and laboratory tests shall be usedto illustrate the efficacy of the distributed generating system.

The last topic is on dish-Stirling solar-thermal power plant. Asimplified adiabatic model of the Stirling engine is developed forthe study of grid-connected power plant. The model relates theaverage values of the engine state variables and also takes intoaccount engine losses. As the engine is shown to exhibitnon-minimum phase behavior, an improved temperature control schemefor the engine heat absorber is developed. By including enginespeed, pressure and solar insolation limits into the analysis,steady-state feasible operating state of the power plant isobtained. Maximum solar energy harness is shown achievable throughvariable speed operation of the power plant.
