Abstract

This chapter presents the main research directions identified in the literature to be of great interest in the hybrid power systems (HPSs). The tracking control of the maximum power point (MPP) and maximum efficiency point (MEP) must be implemented to harvest the available energy from renewable energy sources (RES) and efficiently operate the proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) system, respectively. Because the PEMFC system based on the power-following control will power with delay the smooth part of the needed power on the DC bus, the energy storage systems (ESS) based on the batteries must be hybridized with power storage devices to sustain the power variability on the DC bus due to a variable RES power and dynamic load demand. Besides the power-following control to ensure the charge-sustained mode for the battery, the optimization strategies must be implemented for the PEMFC system to improve the fuel economy, especially for the FC vehicles. In fact, these directions will be detailed in the chapters of this book based on the research results presented recently in the literature.
