“…Such system is OPC-connected to additional controllers and devices for effective data exchange. A recent research is reported in [5], where a HRES is developed as test-facility to address the integration challenges. The control system supervisory level is materialised by a PC where the energy management strategy is implemented in Matlab.…”

The Object Linking and Embedding for Process Control (OPC) interface provides an effective means to exchange data between automation-related entities, both hardware and software. Since its creation, it has been profusely used not only for industrial scenarios but also for other spheres, among which energy automation is an important scope. In order to portray the relevance of such protocol, this paper presents a survey of applications of OPC communication to manage systems integration in the context of energy automation.Palabras Clave: industrial communications, OPC, energy automation, Smart Grid, interoperability.

“…Lucas et al [14] presented a model using MATLAB/Simulink, to demonstrate how a VRFB based storage device can provide multi-ancillary services, focusing on frequency regulation and peak-shaving functions showing that the VRFB storage device can regulate frequency effectively due to its fast response time, while still performing peak-shaving services. Baumann et al [15] argued that small scale hydrogen systems and VRFB are far from being cost competitive in energy storage.…”

 Abstract-Some new battery energy storage techniques are suitable for spinning reserve services for thermal power plants due to their quick response to millisecond time scale adequate to balance instantaneous load fluctuation. Technical and economic performances of three kinds of batteries including lithium ion battery, sodium-sulfur battery and vanadium redox flow battery (VRFB) are discussed as illustrations of standby supply of thermal power plants. As the spinning reserve power sources, they can achieve remarkable economic benefits in the life cycle despite their high power costs and energy costs. The reserve capacity of battery energy storage systems can improve generation rates of thermal power plants, decline gross coal consumption rates, decrease generating cost and the emission of carbon dioxide and pollutants, thus playing a significant role in energy conservation and emission reduction. His current research focuses on the inter relationship between battery energy storage techniques and smart grid. He has taken over several projects financed by government grants for battery energy storage technologies and achieved significant achievements.Prof. Liao has owned a couple of Shanghai science and technology progress awards.Peng Zhou was born in Hubei, China on Sept. 15, 1993. He is now a postgraduate student majoring in environmental chemical engineering with Shanghai University of Electric Power in Shanghai, China. His current research focuses on electric energy storage applications and technologies.

“…It was reported that the conversion into H 2 is superior to battery to store the large amount of renewable energy for a long time [12], and there were some reports investigating the combination of PV and electrolytic H 2 [13] [14]. Although there were a few research investigating the combination of BIPV, electrolytic H 2 and fuel cell power generation system [15] [16] [17], they mainly focused on the system control procedure such as the evaluation on dynamics characteristics of system output [15], the optimization of system output [16] and the evaluation of fussy control effectivity [17]. Therefore, there were few studies other than the authors' group that investigate the power generation characteristics considering the size of the building and climate conditions in the building locations to meet the electricity demand [18].…”

An integrated energy system (with photovoltaic (PV) and fuel cell (FC) for building) is proposed and assessed in term of its energy self-sufficiency rate in seven cities (Nagoya, Toyota, Tajimi, Takayama, Ogaki, Hamamatsu, Shizuoka) in Tokai region in Japan in this paper. In this work, it is considered that the electricity requirement of the building for household users is provided by a building integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) system and the gap between the energy demand and BIPV supply is fulfilled by the FC. The FC is powered by the electrolytic H 2 produced when PV power was in surplus. Based on the study of applying the proposed system in seven cities, which clarifies the effectiveness of the integrated BIPV, electrolytic H 2 and FC power generation system, a universal system model has been developed in this paper. It has been observed that the monthly power production from BIPV as well as FC system are higher in spring and summer, while they are both lower in autumn and winter at all considered locations. The self-sufficiency rate of the FC system is higher with decreasing households' number and it has been observed that 16 is the most appropriate number of households in a building, whose electricity demand could be fully covered by the integrated PV and FC system. Due to its climate condition, Hamamatsu is the best city in the region for installing the proposed system. The correlation between the households' number and self-sufficiency rate of the FC system per solar PV installation area can be expressed by the regression curve in the form of y = ax −b well.
