A Novel Approach on Hydrogen Fuel Cell Based Efficient and Low-Cost Grid Power System

Fuel Cells are an upcoming technology that has promise in future clean and efficient transportation. More specifically, use in conjunction with batteries in electric scooters as a hybrid system is an attractive option due to its ability to provide clean, efficient power while maintaining quick refueling times that traditional combustion engines possess. Fuel cells maximize the advantage, an intelligent control system must be developed. Additionally, regenerative braking using capacitors can also be used to allow farther range and longer battery life, especially in city environments. Thus, different topologies that utilize battery, capacitor, and fuel cell technologies with regenerative braking have been examined to find an efficient design. In this study, we using MATLAB/Simulink®, these systems can be executed, resulting in a tool to characterize both the electrical system and the overall dynamics of the scooter, aiding in the part selection, design, and simulation.
