Strategy for Optimization of Energy Management Based on Fuzzy Logic in an FCEV with a Contribution of a Photovoltaic Source

Abstract

In this article, we will study how to increase fuel economy, in a fuel cell/battery (FC + B) and fuel cell/battery/photovoltaic source (FC + B + PV) configuration in a hybrid vehicle with fuel cell. Hybrid vehicle models (FC + B) and (FC + B + PV) will be designed under Simulink/Matlab use a new hybrid approach based on the battery’s soc based on the availability of sunshine so the availability of the PV source. The results show that the proposed control of this strategy can meet the energy needs for good optimization in energy management. Comprehensive comparisons of this energy management strategy based on the control and monitoring of the fuel consumption of the fuel cell according to the chosen driving cycles. Therefore, the proposed strategy will provide a novel approach for advanced of energy management optimization system.
