Using fuel cell systems for distributed generation (DG) applications represents a meaningful
candidate to conventional plants due to their high power density and the heat recovery …

This study reviews the latest works on performance modelling and fault diagnosis of fuel cell
systems during the past few years. The fuel cell is a promising alternative power source for …

The need for local energy planning is not reduced after liberalization. Both integrated energy
companies and local governments have to consider alternative solutions across traditional …

The use of fuel cell (FC) is considered one of the methods of producing electricity with
relatively high efficiency. So, it has attracted many researchers' attention to develop and …

The electrical load pattern representing the residential consumption is subject to different
types of uncertainty, depending on family composition, lifestyle, number and type of use of …

Environmental pressures have resulted in an increased importance being placed on the
efficient production and consumption of energy. Micro combined heat and power (μCHP) …

This paper is focused on the development of a model for achieving optimal control of the
cooling system of a polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell (PEMFC)-based cogeneration …

Fuel cells could substantially decarbonise domestic energy production, but at what cost? It is
known that these micro-CHP systems are expensive but actual price data has been elusive …

The feasibility on a residential energy supply network using multiple cogeneration systems,
known as combined heat and powers, is investigated by an optimization approach. The …
