Presentation

Battery sizing for fuel cell hybrid systems

A model based rightsizing analysis for a battery & fuel cell hybrid vessel by FEPS. The study highlights how an energy conversion and storage system on board a yacht can be designed to cover a typical load profile. Real life power data was used to design the hybrid system setup as well as the operational mechanisms to operate both systems in the most efficient way
