Due to climate change, the electric vehicle (EV) industry is rapidly growing and drawing researchers interest. Driving conditions like mountainous roads, slick surfaces, and rough terrains illuminate the vehicles inherent nonlinearities. Under such scenarios, the behavior of power sources (fuel cell, battery, and super-capacitor), power processing units (converters), and power consuming units (traction motors) deviates from nominal operation. The increasing demand for FCHEVs necessitates control systems capable of handling nonlinear dynamics, while ensuring robust, precise energy distribution among fuel cells, batteries, and super-capacitors. This paper presents a DSMC strategy enhanced with Robust Uniform Exact Differentiators for FCHEV energy management. To optimally tune DSMC parameters, reduce chattering, and address the limitations of conventional methods, a hybrid metaheuristic framework is proposed. This framework integrates moth flame optimization (MFO) with the gravitational search algorithm (GSA) and Fractal Heritage Evolution, implemented through three spiral-based variants: MFOGSAPSO-A (Archimedean), MFOGSAPSO-H (Hyperbolic), and MFOGSAPSO-L (Logarithmic). Control laws are optimized using the Integral of Time-weighted Absolute Error (ITAE) criterion. Among the variants, MFOGSAPSO-L shows the best overall performance with the lowest ITAE for the fuel cell (56.38), battery (57.48), super-capacitor (62.83), and DC bus voltage (4741.60). MFOGSAPSO-A offers the most accurate transient response with minimum RMSE and MAE FC (0.005712, 0.000602), battery (0.004879, 0.000488), SC (0.002145, 0.000623), DC voltage (0.232815, 0.058991), and speed (0.030990, 0.010998)—outperforming MFOGSAPSO, GSA, and PSO. MFOGSAPSO-L further reduces the ITAE for fuel cell tracking by up to 29% over GSA and improves control smoothness. PSO performs moderately but lags under transient conditions. Simulation results conducted under EUDC validate the effectiveness of the MFOGSAPSO-based DSMC framework, confirming its superior tracking, faster convergence, and stable voltage control under transients making it a robust and high-performance solution for FCHEV.

Addressing the issue of efficient, economical, and reliable operation of a single lead-acid battery (LAB) black start system in complex scenarios, a hybrid energy storage system (HESS) black start scheme based on super capacitors (SCs) is proposed. The proposed solution mainly includes two aspects: an integrated structure and a control strategy. A topology structure with a direct parallel output on the AC side is adopted, and the SC is directly connected to the AC side of the LAB in the current source mode. Compared with traditional DC side access schemes, it can cope with large surge currents by a small capacity, and the economy of the HESS black start system has been effectively improved. In order to improve the dynamic characteristics of the black start control system, a self-adaptive control strategy based on the virtual synchronous generator (VSG) and model predictive control (MPC) is proposed. Based on the small signal disturbance model, the influence of the system parameters on stability was analyzed, and the control parameters are adjusted according to the angular velocity and frequency deviation. A generator recognition model at the ms level was constructed, and the set reference current according to the power level is brought into the MPC to track the reference current. Compared with existing methods, it can effectively suppress the disturbance of the black start system, and the fast responsiveness and stability of the control system is improved. Finally, real operational data is compared and analyzed. The results indicate that the proposed control strategy can accurately identify different black start scenarios, with lower configuration costs and good dynamic performance. Full article

A nonlinear adaptive multiple-input multiple-output (NAMIMO) controller is designed to control a super capacitor compensation inverter. The proposed controller effectively suppresses the effects of impact loads from natural gas generation systems. In this paper, the transient current model of the compensation system is transformed into the power model using transient power theory, and then a direct power control algorithm with a vector control strategy is designed based on the whole power model. The proposed strategy can not only effectively suppress the impact of impact loads on the system but also maintain the stability of the microgrid to a certain extent. Meanwhile, the PLL control structure is replaced by an adaptive algorithm, which not only solves the system instability problem but also improves the dynamic response of the compensation system. In addition, the functional advantages, the frequency is bounded and stable throughout the whole process, and this differential frequency modulation allows the compensation system to exit the compensation smoothly. Finally, the simulation and experimental results on a 600 kW natural gas generator demonstrate that the proposed compensation strategy and control algorithm can effectively suppress the impact load effects.

In the past few years, metal chalcogenides have received extensive consideration because of their excellent physicochemical belongings. Particularly, molybdenum selenide (MoSe2) is a promising metal dichalcogenide which possesses decent optical, electrical, and chemical properties and can be explored for a variety of applications. MoSe2 has been extensively used for several applications such as energy storage and sensing. Since the energy crisis is one of the major challenges of today’s world, super-capacitors and hydrogen evolution are promising energy technologies that may benefit the global world in the future. Thus, researchers have been motivated towards the strategy and fabrication of electrode materials for super-capacitors and hydrogen evolution applications. MoSe2 is a multifunctional material, and previous years have witnessed the rapid growth in the publication of MoSe2-based electrode materials for super-capacitors, hydrogen evolution, and electrochemical sensing applications.

More recently, researchers and the industrial community have started researching DC appliances and DC microgrids as a means of increasing the end-to-end efficiency of systems. Given the fluctuating nature of renewable resources, energy storage becomes mandatory in powering households with minimal AC grid supply, and rechargeable battery packs with maximum power point tracking controllers with inverters are used. However, this approach is not the most efficient due to losses in the power converters used in the energy supply path, while short life and environmental concerns of battery storage also come into play. With the rapid development of commercial super-capacitors, with longer life, higher power density and wider operational temperature range, this device family can be at the center of a new development era, for power converters for DC homes and DC appliances. The new family of converters and protection systems known as supercapacitor-assisted techniques is a unique new approach to minimize or eliminate batteries while improving the ETEE. These new SCA techniques are based on a new theoretical concept now published as supercapacitor-assisted loss management theory. In this paper, we will demonstrate how we extend SCALoM theory to develop SCA converters for whiteware, with the example of a DC-converted commercial double-door refrigerator with implementation details.

The increasing energy demand for and fast depletion of fossil fuels have driven the need to explore renewable and clean energy sources. Hydrogen production via water electrocatalysis is considered a promising green fuel technology for addressing global energy and environmental challenges while supporting sustainable development. Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) has emerged as a potential electrocatalyst for hydrogen evolution reactions (HERs) and super-capacitor (SC) applications due to its high electrochemical activity, low cost, and abundance. However, compared to noble metals like platinum (Pt), MoS2 exhibit lower HER activity in water electrocatalysis. Therefore, further modification is needed to enhance its catalytic performance. To address this, MoS2 has been effectively modified with materials such as reduced graphene oxide (rGO), carbon nanotubes (CNTs), polymers, metal oxides, and MXenes. These modifications significantly improve the electrochemical properties of MoS2, enhancing its performance in HER and SC applications. In this review article, we have compiled recent reports on the fabrication of MoS2-based hybrid materials for HER and SC applications. The challenges, advantages, and future perspectives of MoS2-based materials for HERs and SCs have been discussed. It is believed that readers may benefit from the recent updates on the fabrication of MoS2-based hybrid materials for HER and SC applications. Full article

Due to population growth and global technological development, energy consumption has increased exponentially. The global energy crisis opens up many hotly debated topics regarding energy generation and consumption. Not only is energy production in short supply due to limited energy resources but efficient and sustainable storage has become a very important goal. Currently, there are energy storage devices such as batteries, capacitors, and super-capacitors. Supercapacitors or electrochemical capacitors can be very advantageous replacements for batteries and capacitors because they can achieve higher power density and energy density characteristics. The evolution and progress of society demand the use of innovative and composite nanostructured metal oxide materials, which fulfill the requirements of high-performance technologies. This review mainly addresses the synthesis techniques and properties of 2D and 3D metal oxide nanostructured materials, especially based on Ti, Fe, Ga, and Sn ions, electrochemical methods used for the characterization and application of 2D, and 3D nanostructured metal oxide structures in electrochemical storage systems of energy.

In the off-grid photovoltaic DC microgrid, traditional droop control encounters challenges in effectively adjusting the droop coefficient in response to varying power fluctuation frequencies, which can be influenced by factors such as line impedance. This paper introduces a novel Multi-strategy Harris Hawk Optimization Algorithm (MHHO) that integrates variable universe fuzzy control theory with droop control to develop an adaptive variable universe fuzzy droop control strategy. The algorithm employs Fuch mapping to evenly distribute the initial population across the solution space and incorporates logarithmic spiral and improved adaptive weight strategies during both the exploration and exploitation phases, enhancing its ability to escape local optima. A comparative analysis against five classical meta-heuristic algorithms on the CEC2017 benchmarks demonstrates the superior performance of the proposed algorithm. Ultimately, the adaptive variable universe fuzzy droop control based on MHHO dynamically optimizes the droop coefficient to mitigate the negative impact of internal system factors and achieve a balanced power distribution between the battery and super-capacitor in the DC microgrid. Through MATLAB/Simulink simulations, it is demonstrated that the proposed adaptive variable universe fuzzy droop control strategy based on MHHO can limit the fluctuation range of bus voltage within ±0.75%, enhance the robustness and stability of the system, and optimize the charge and discharge performance of the energy storage unit.

Compared to the AC counterpart, the DC shore power system provides a significant advantage of efficient power supply from renewable sources to ships and onshore loads. Super-capacitors serve as key energy storage units in such a system to buffer the power fluctuations and collect the regenerative energy. However, the ultra-wide voltage range of super-capacitors imposes a significant challenge in the topology selection and efficiency optimization of the interfacing isolated bidirectional DC–DC converter. To tackle this challenge, this paper analyzes and compares two promising converter topologies, which are a configurable modular two-level dual-active bridge (CM-2L-DAB) and a three-level dual-active bridge (3L-DAB). To facilitate an ultra-wide voltage range, extended phase-shift (EPS) modulation in conjunction with the topology reconfiguration is analyzed for the CM-2L-DAB, while a hybrid modulation scheme is proposed for the 3L-DAB. A unified design approach is provided for both topologies, which also yields to the power loss modeling. On this basis, the CM-2L-DAB and 3L-DAB are thoroughly compared in terms of the modulation schemes, current stress, soft-switching operation, power conversion efficiency, material usage, closed-loop control scheme, and reliability. A prominent conclusion can be drawn that the CM-2L-DAB provides a higher efficiency than the 3L-DAB over the whole voltage range, but it relies on additional relays to reconfigure its topology which results in lower reliability and dynamic performance than the 3L-DAB.

Nowadays, due to climate change and disappearance of fossil fuels, hybrid electric UAVs using renewable energy sources are being developed. In addition, although research on UAVs with a large wingspan and high weight is common due to their long endurance, research on mini UAVs has remained limited. This study aims to increase the energy capacity of solar-powered mini UAVs and thus extend their endurance by developing a fixed-wing hybrid UAV that can fly with solar energy as much as possible, especially during the cruise phase. In this study, a solar-powered mini VTOL (vertical take-off and landing) UAV with a wingspan of 1.8 m and weight of 3.3 kg is developed and a model of the system consisting of solar cells, a battery, a super capacitor, and a DC/DC converter is created in MATLAB/Simulink software (R2023b). Additionally, state machine control (SMC), a rule-based (RB) energy management strategy (EMS), has been applied to this model. While the power obtained from the sun is divided among the other energy components, the durability of the UAV is increased, and the excess energy is stored as altitude energy to be used when necessary. As a result, in this study, an energy management algorithm including altitude energy has been successfully applied to a solar-powered UAV, achieving an 11.11% energy saving. Full article

To address the issue where the grid integration of renewable energy field stations may exacerbate the power fluctuation in tie-line agreements and jeopardize safe grid operation, we propose a hybrid energy storage system (HESS) capacity allocation optimization method based on variational mode decomposition (VMD) and a multi-strategy improved salp swarm algorithm (ISSA). From typical wind load power and contact line agreement power, the HESS power is obtained. VMD decomposes this power into high- and low-frequency power, respectively, for the super capacitor and the Li-ion battery. Considering charging and discharging power and state of charge (SOC) constraints, an optimization model minimizing the system equivalent annual value cost is established. ISSA optimizes the best decomposition layer K and penalty coefficients α in VMD. The optimal cut-off point and corresponding energy storage allocation scheme are analyzed. A simulation and analysis on MATLAB show that the proposed ISSA-VMD HESS capacity allocation scheme saves 7.53% in costs compared to an empirical mode decomposition (EMD) scheme, proving the method’s effectiveness and superiority.

Carbon deposits consisting of vertically oriented multilayer graphene sheets on metallic foils represent an interesting alternative to activated carbon in electrical and electrochemical devices such as super-capacitors because of the superior electrical conductivity of graphene and huge surface–mass ratio. The graphene sheets were deposited on cobalt foils by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition using propane as the carbon precursor. Plasma was sustained by an inductively coupled radiofrequency discharge in the H mode at a power of 500 W and a propane pressure of 17 Pa. The precursor effectively dissociated in plasma conditions and enabled the growth of porous films consisting of multilayer graphene sheets. The deposition rate varied with time and peaked at 100 nm/s. The evolution of surface wettability was determined by the sessile drop method. The untreated substrates were moderately hydrophobic at a water contact angle of about 110°. The contact angle dropped to about 50° after plasma treatment for less than a second and increased monotonously thereafter. The maximal contact angle of 130° appeared at a treatment time of about 30 s. Thereafter, it slowly decreased, with a prolonged deposition time. The evolution of the wettability was explained by surface composition and morphology. A brief treatment with oxygen plasma enabled a super-hydrophilic surface finish of the films consisting of multilayer graphene sheets. Full article

Broad adoption has already been started of MXene materials in various energy storage technologies, such as super-capacitors and batteries, due to the increasing versatility of the preparation methods, as well as the ongoing discovery of new members. The essential requirements for an excellent anode material for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are high safety, minimal volume expansion during the lithiation/de-lithiation process, high cyclic stability, and high Li+ storage capability. However, most of the anode materials for LIBs, such as graphite, SnO2, Si, Al, and Li4Ti5O12, have at least one issue. Hence, creating novel anode materials continues to be difficult. To date, a few MXenes have been investigated experimentally as anodes of LIBs due to their distinct active voltage windows, large power capabilities, and longer cyclic life. The objective of this review paper is to provide an overview of the synthesis and characterization characteristics of the MXenes as anode materials of LIBs, including their discharge/charge capacity, rate performance, and cycle ability. In addition, a summary of the potential outlook for developments of these materials as anodes is provided. Full article
