Abstract

Wind energy is being integrated into the grid as a renewable energy source to meet the world's electricity needs. Grid-connected wind turbines are often disrupted by grid fault problems. Fault ride-through (FRT) ability has become the most important grid connection necessity for wind energy conversion systems (WECS). In the event of a voltage dip fault, the low voltage ride-through (LVRT) capacity is an imperative key to successful grid integration. This paper proposes a dynamic voltage restorer (DVR) controlled through an artificial neural network (ANN) to improve the LVRT capability of a grid-connected wind turbine (WT) based permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG). The DVR injects series voltage into the system through a series-connected transformer. The DVR can then restore the voltage to the pre-fault value. The injection transformer is connected to the line linking the PMSG-based wind turbine output to the utility grid. Design and simulation of the low voltage ride-through applied to symmetrical and asymmetrical fault conditions were performed in MATLAB/Simulink software. Simulation results approve that the performance of the technique fully demonstrates its effectiveness and practicality.

Abstract

As the world increasingly turns to renewable energy, green hydrogen produced through water electrolysis has emerged as a clean and promising alternative to fossil fuels. In this work, we explore a solar-powered hydrogen production system that uses real data from an operational photovoltaic (PV) installation, ensuring accurate and realistic modeling of environmental conditions. A DC-DC buck converter is used to regulate the fluctuating PV output, supplying the precise voltage needed by a PEM electrolyzer. Sliding mode control (SMC) strategy is applied to maintain voltage stability, and its performance is compared with a traditional proportional-integral (PI) controller. Simulations in MATLAB/Simulink demonstrate that SMC offers better dynamic performance, including minimal overshoot, faster response, and an impressive hydrogen production rate of 0.98 L/min (98% efficiency). By providing more consistent voltage to the electrolyzer, SMC significantly boosts overall system performance. These findings underline the potential of advanced control strategies, supported by real-world data, to make renewable hydrogen production more reliable and efficient.
