Summary: This paper proposes a new multi-stage power management strategy for hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) to enhance security and performance. The strategy utilizes a model-based coordinated switching approach tailored to the transient dynamics of power sources, protecting sensitive power sources like fuel cells (FCs) from potential damages caused by abrupt load variations. A fuzzy energy management method is employed to manage power flow in HEVs, allowing safe and defined operation of FCs at multiple operating points. Fault detection algorithms are integrated to detect and correct any power source failures. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed strategy provides efficient usage and precise control of FC power, compensating for FC sluggishness and reducing transient power ripples and voltage fluctuations. The effectiveness of the strategy is validated through simulations on the RT LAB platform with satisfactory results.

Summary: Hybrid fuel cell battery electric vehicles require complex energy management systems (EMS) to operate effectively. This paper compares different EMSs using a common modelling framework and evaluates their performance in terms of charge sustaining ability and fuel cell degradation. It is found that certain EMSs can effectively reduce H-2 consumption but may lead to decreased fuel cell lifetime. Additionally, a novel fuzzy logic controller is introduced that adjusts its control strategy based on fuel cell degradation, extending the fuel cell lifetime.

Summary: This paper presents an energy management algorithm that considers techno-economic and environmental factors for a hybrid solar and biogas-based electric vehicle charging station. The proposed algorithm, designed for a 20-kW charging station, utilizes a fuzzy inference system in MATLAB SIMULINK to optimize real-time charging costs and renewable energy utilization by managing power generation, EV power demand, charging periods, and existing charging rates. The results demonstrate a 74.67% reduction in energy costs compared to existing flat rate tariffs, with lower charging costs on weekdays and weekends. The integration of hybrid renewables also leads to a significant decrease in greenhouse gas emissions, making the project profitable with short payback periods for charging station owners.

Summary: This paper proposes a three-layer online EMS for efficient power distribution in a multi-stack fuel cell hybrid electric vehicle. The method continuously updates the characteristics of each fuel cell and battery using online estimators, and uses a rule-based approach to improve the calculation speed. The power distribution is achieved using a Q-learning algorithm based on reinforcement learning. The proposed method significantly reduces the trip cost compared to other online strategies and has a slightly higher cost compared to the offline strategy.

Summary: This paper presents an energy management strategy for a series hybrid electric propulsion system designed for a fixed-wing vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) aircraft. The proposed method combines an ideal operating line (IOL) and fuzzy logic to optimize the power allocation of the generator and the battery pack.

The introduction of fuzzy logic to optimize power allocation improves the overall efficiency of the system. The feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed energy management strategy are verified, providing design ideas and analysis methods for hybrid electric aircraft energy management.

Summary: The Energy Management Strategy (EMS) in Fuel Cell Hybrid Electric Vehicles (FCHEVs) plays a crucial role in optimizing power distribution. This paper proposes a new health-conscious EMS algorithm based on Model Predictive Control (MPC) to minimize battery degradation and extend its lifetime. Compared to other optimization-based EMSs, this approach does not require speed profile information and can be used for real-time control. Simulation results show that it significantly reduces economic cost and energy sources degradation.
