Response characteristics and operating methods of new type dispersed power supply system using photovoltaic fuel cell and SMES

In this paper, a new type dispersed power supply system consisting of the photovoltaic (PV), the fuel cell (FC) as well as a superconducting magnetic energy storage system (SMES) is proposed. The basic philosophy of this concept is described, and the feasibility of this system is confirmed by computer simulation. In order to deal with the PV output fluctuation and the response time delay of FC, the modified Euler type Moving Average Prediction (EMAP) model is proposed, and the capacity of SMES for this system is examined with the simulation.
