Energy storage systems sizing study for a high-altitude wind energy application

Pastes and hydrogels from carboxymethyl cellulose sodium salt as supporting electrolyte of solid electrochemical supercapacitors

“…Currently, supercapacitors, whose working mechanism is based on electrostatic charge accumulation at interfaces between electrodes and electrolyte ions, are considered as energy storage devices with a great potential due to their high-power, long cycle life, low maintenance cost, and safe pollution-free operation (Chen, Xu, Wei, & Yang, 2016;Hibino, Kobayashi, Nagao, & Kawasaki, 2015;Zhou, Ye, Wan, & Jia, 2015). These advantages promote the use of supercapacitors in a large variety of applications, as for example motor vehicles (Kühne, 2010;Miller, & Simon, 2008;Rezzak, & Boudjerda, 2017), laptops (Gao et al, 2011) autonomous medical sensors (Guo et al, 2017), wearable electronics (Bao, & Li, 2012;Jost et al, 2013), and energy harvesters (Pavković, Hoić, Deur, & Petrić, 2014;Yuan et al, 2012).…”

Load match optimisation of a residential building case study: A cross-entropy based electricity storage sizing algorithm

“…The storage sizing problem for electricity has, in the vast majority of cases, been approached in order to guarantee a sufficient number of days of autonomy when the generation was intermittent (e.g., isolated communities powered by renewable energy technologies) [28][29][30]. Although many studies are available in the literature on the optimisation of storage sizing, they are usually connected to energy planning and optimal distributed energy generation sizing for stand-alone applications [31,32] or cost optimisation in both the stand-alone and grid-connected applications [33][34][35][36].…”
