Canada and the Global Energy Scenario • At present, proportion of renewable energy in the global
energy mix is about 14 % only.• Various environmental regulations and protocols aim at
increasing this ratio towards 50% by 2050.

Introduction 6
Hybrid Energy Systems in Stand-alone Applications
• Energy from a renewable source depends on environmental conditions
• In a Hybrid Energy System, a renewable source is combined with energy storage and secondary power source(s).
• Mostly used in off-grid/remote applications• Could be tied with a distributed power generation network.

Introduction 7
Wind-Fuel Cell Hybrid Energy System• A wind turbine works as a primary power source• Availability of wind energy is of intermittent nature• Excess energy could be used for hydrogen production by an
electrolyzer• During low winds, a fuel-cell delivers the electrical energy using
the stored hydrogen• Radiated heat could be used for space heating• Power converters and controllers are required to integrate the
system

Introduction 8
Scope of Research
Q1. Is a wind-fuel cell hybrid energy system feasible for a given set of conditions?
• Pre-feasibility Study• Site: St. John’s, Newfoundland.
Q2. What are the alternatives for building and testing a HES, provided component cost is very high and technology risk is substantial?
• Computer aided modeling• System integration and performance analysis through
simulation

Pre-feasibility Study
Investigation of technology options, configurations and economics using:
• Electrical load profile • Availability of renewable resources• Cost of components (capital, O&M)• Technology alternatives• Economics & constraints• HOMER (optimization software)

Pre-feasibility Study 10
HOMER Implementation
• St. John’s, Newfoundland• Renewable (wind/solar) & non-
renewable (Diesel generator) sources• Conventional (Battery) & non-
conventional (Hydrogen) energy storage
• Sensitivity analysis with wind data, solar irradiation, fuel cell cost & diesel price.

Pre-feasibility Study 11
Electrical Load• A typical grid connected home may consume around
50 kWh/d (peak 15 kW)• A HES is not suitable for such a large load• Off-grid/remote homes should be designed with
energy conservation measures• A house with 25 kWh/d (4.73 kW peak) is considered• Actual data is scaled down

Contributions
For a stand-alone residential load in St. John’s, consuming 25 kWh/d (4.73 kW peak) a pre-feasibility study is carried out.
A mathematical model of wind-fuel cell energy system is developed, simulated and presented. The wind turbine model employs a concept of mechanical sensorless FLC.
The PEM fuel cell model unifies the electrochemical, thermal and reactant flow dynamics.
A number of papers generated through this work. Explored fields include:
• Wind resource assessment• Fuel cell modeling• Grid connected fuel cell systems• Small wind turbine modeling

Conclusions
A wind-fuel cell hybrid energy system would be cost effective if the fuel cell cost reduces to 15% of its current price. Cost of energy for such a system would be around $0.427/kWh.
Performance of the system components and control methods were found to be satisfactory.
Improvement in relevant technologies and reduction in component cost are the key to success of alternative energy solutions.
