“…The simulation outcomes are pleasing and can be extended to other categories of panels where PCM can be positioned. Sohani et al [ 111 ] determined the optimal thickness of PCM using a multi‐objective optimization (MOO) technique that takes into account the performance of real‐time data throughout the year. By considering objective functions such as annual energy storage (AES), AEP, PBP, levelized cost of energy (LCOE), and annual carbon‐dioxide reduction (ACDR), a favorable situation was achieved.…”

Photovoltaic (PV) cells convert solar energy into electricity is currently the cleanest and most economical way to generate electricity. Nevertheless, just a portion of the solar power can be transformed into electrical energy, while the remaining portion is converted into heat, leading to an increase in the temperature of the PV cells. The rise in temperature will not only cause a decrease in the electrical efficiency of PV cells, but it may also impact their lifespan. By placing phase change materials (PCMs) on the back of the PV cells, it is possible to decrease the temperature increase and enhance the electrical efficiency. The heat collected by PCMs can also be taken away using liquid cooling and put to use. In this paper, the classification, performance evaluation and composite modification technology of PCMs are introduced in detail. The practical application requirements of PCMs in thermal management of PV cells are discussed, and some new ideas of applying PCMs to PV cells are prospected. Moreover, the prior investigations regarding the incorporation of PCMs with PV systems and PV/T systems have also been compiled, encompassing the various research perspectives and methodologies employed. In addition, the possible development direction in the future is prospected.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

“…The system components were optimized to minimize the levelized cost of energy (LCoE), battery life cycle loss (LCL), and loss of power supply probability (LPSP). Recent studies have also used real-time data to perform dynamic multi-objective optimization exercises in the energy field [34]. While many of the indicators and KPIs are the same (e.g., annual production and other economic indicators), the data used to perform the optimization is different.…”

When a substantial number of wind parks are approaching the end of their lifespan, and developers of renewables are facing decisions about what to do with their assets, concepts such as hybrid power plants are emerging as a promising solution to enable renewable integration in a cost-effective and robust manner. This work proposes a decision-aid algorithm to perform a comprehensive analysis of hybrid power plants, focusing on the energetic contribution and economic feasibility of converting existing wind power plants into hybrid power plants (i.e., installing photovoltaic panels and a storage system). The analysis was performed by comparing the option of converting existing wind plants into hybrid plants with a pure repowering exercise or overplanting using wind technology only. The obtained results unequivocally demonstrate the added value of hybrid power plants as they promote: (i) a higher installed capacity and yearly capacity factor (up to 50%); (ii) an increased efficiency of existing electric infrastructures; and (iii) a positive contribution to a sustainable energy system with the ability to generate economic value.
