Hybrid PV/Fuel Cell System Design and Simulation
Vipin Kumar Maharia, Girish Dalal
Abstract: In this paper, a hybrid Photovoltaic (PV) -fuel cell generation system employing an electrolyzer for hydrogen generation is designed and simulated. The system is applicable for remote areas or isolated loads. Fuzzy regression model (FRM) is applied for maximum power point tracking to extract maximum available solar power from PV arrays under variable insolation conditions. The system incorporates a controller designed to achieve permanent power supply to the load via the PV array or the fuel cell, or both according to the power available from the sun.
