Renewable energy management of an hybrid water pumping system (photovoltaic/wind/battery) based on Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy model

This research work presents an optimal energy management for a hybrid water pumping system driven by a photovoltaic generator (PVG) and a wind turbine. These two renewable energies are used as power generation sources, whereas a battery is added as an energy-storing system, for the purpose of controlling the power flow and providing a constant load supply. The proposed management system, serve to guarantee the pumping system autonomy in a rural region where's no access to the electrical network. As a result, a maximum power point tracking (MPPT) controller is created based on the fuzzy Takagi–Sugeno (TS) model, ensuring maximum power transfer to the moto-pump in spite of wind speed and insolation changes. The synthesis of MPPT control law involves TS fuzzy reference models which generate the desired trajectories to track. A supervisor has been developed for energy management and its major purpose is to effectively use the battery to satisfy the power load requirements, and that is by maintaining the state of charge (SOC) to extend the battery's life. Finally, simulation results have been done based on Matlab/Simulink with the aim of validating the efficiency of the proposed energy management supervisor.
