This paper presents an energy storage system (ESS) suitable for the Smart Grids. Nowadays, smart grids suffer from peak demands of electricity, which pushes the utility companies to resort to fossil fuels to satisfy the peak demands. Fossil fuels, such as natural gas, are the main cause of the global warming. The project presented in this paper is about the design and implementation of an ESS made...
Photovoltaic generation, due to its decreasing cost and versatility, has seen a growing utilization in residential buildings. However, the mismatch between the demand and the photovoltaic generation profiles leads to high power flows between the household and the grid. The appearance of tariffs that foster the self-consumption and penalize the injection of energy into the electrical grid increases...
The aim of the project is the construction of a zero emission electric propulsion boat used by public transport. Our idea is to define a completely zero impact project. The ferry boat is powered by lithium-ion batteries that can be charged at any harbor ship visits. Furthermore, in order to obtain a definitely eco friendly propulsion system, the energy consumption will be recovered by a photovoltaic...
