Hybrid lithium-ion battery and hydrogen energy storage systems for a wind-supplied microgrid
(Elsevier, 2023-09-01)Microgrids with high shares of variable renewable energy resources, such as wind, experience intermittent and variable electricity generation that causes supply-demand mismatches over multiple timescales. Lithium-ion ... -
Investigating Synergy Between Vertical Axis Wind Turbines Using the Actuator Line Model
(University of Waterloo, 2022-08-22)In the past decade, numerous studies have confirmed the presence of beneficial, power-enhancing effects in the interactions of multiple vertical axis wind turbines (VAWTs). This effect is especially important for the ... -
An Offshore Wind Farm Featuring Differential Power Processing
(University of Waterloo, 2021-12-22)Offshore wind farms are a rapidly growing technology used to harvest wind energy on the open seas where wind speeds are significantly higher and steadier than onshore. Current wind farms located far away from shore (e.g., ...
