Batteries and Fuel Cells are complementary devices
Types of Hybrids: Passive vs. Active Advantages and Disadvantages of each type
Sizing in Active Hybrids: Large Fuel Cell (to handle average power) + Small
Battery (to handle peak power) Large Battery (handles all instantaneous power
demands) + Small Fuel Cell (continuously recharges the battery), also known as a “Range Extender”
Linking the Battery and Fuel Cell

Role of the Converter in an Active Hybrid: Multiple Input Power Electronic Converter (MIPEC)
Link between the two power sources and the load is accomplished via a DC link or by magnetic coupling
Regulates the Power Flow between the battery, fuel cell, and the load
Load Regeneration, Recharging the Battery, Preventing power from flowing into the Fuel Cell
