Distributed Power Generation System Based on Fuel Cells

We designed a distributed power generation system utilizing fuel cells, which operates in parallel with the main electrical grid. During the design phase, we incorporated multiple critical factors including system security protocols, operational efficiency, and environmental sustainability. To verify system viability, we performed detailed simulation analyses using MATLAB/Simulink environment, implementing power flow algorithms and grid synchronization control logic. The simulation models accounted for various load conditions (resistive, inductive, and nonlinear loads) and environmental variables (temperature fluctuations and humidity effects) to ensure reliable operation across diverse scenarios. Our implementation included maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithms for fuel cell optimization and voltage/frequency stabilization controllers for seamless grid integration. The research yielded promising results, demonstrating robust system performance that could significantly contribute to future sustainable energy development initiatives.
