Because of environmental crisis, researchers are seeking and developing a new, clean, safe and renewable energy. Solar cell energy and fuel cell energy have inestimable development potential. The paper introduces hybrid photovoltaic-fuel cell generation systems supplying a remote power load and hybrid system of solar cell and fuel cell considering the advantages of stable and sustainable energy from the economic point of view. Fuel cell power system has been proven a viable technology to back up severe PV power fluctuations under inclement weather conditions. Fuel cell power generation, containing small land us, is able to alleviate the heavy burden for large surface requirement of PV power plants. In addition, the PV-fuel cell hybrid power system shows a very little potential for lifetime $CO_2$ emissions. In this paper shows the I-V characteristics of the solar module which are dependent on the power of the halogen lamp and the I-V characteristics of fuel cells which are connected in parallel. Also, it shows efficiency of the hybrid system.

통신해양기상위성은 기상관측, 해양관측 및 통신방송의 3가지 임무를 수행하는 정지궤도 복합임무 위성이다. 위성본체는 기존의 화성탐사선(Mars Express) 위성의 구조를 확장하여 새로 개발한 구조체에 기존의 E3000 통신위성 버스에 사용하였던 전기전자 부품 및 추진계를 사용한다. 3축제어 위성으로서 태양전지판은 한 쪽에만 부착되어 있으며, 반대쪽에는 종래의 기상위성이 모멘트 균형을 위하여 갖고 있었던 솔라세일(solar sail)을 갖고 있지 않다. 기상탑재체는 미국의 아이티티(ITT)가 제작 공급하고, 해양탑재체는 이에이디에스 아스트리움(EADS Astrium)사와 항공우주연구원이 공동으로 개발하며, 통신 탑재체는 전자통신연구원에서 개발한다. 지상국은 항공우주연구원이, 관제시스템은 전자통신연구원이 개발을 담당하고 있다. 개발의 전 과정이 해외협력 개발로 이루어진다. 설계는 프랑스의 뚤르즈 소재 이에이디에스 아스트리움(EADS Astrium)사에서 한국 기술진의 참여 하에 이루어지며, 조립 및 시험은 항공우주연구원의 시설을 이용하여 한국에서 이루어진다. 발사준비도 공동으로 수행하고, 발사 후 전이궤도운영은 아스트리움사의 지상국을 사용하여 수행하여 목표궤도에 진입시킨 후 항공우주연구원의 지상국에서 궤도 내 시험(in-orbit-test)를 완료한 후 위성을 인도 받는다.

A low-cost, large area, random, maskless texturing scheme independent of crystal orientation is expected to significantly impact terrestrial photovoltaic technology. We investigated silicon surface microstructures formed by reactive ion etching (RIE) in Multi-Hollow cathode system. Desirable texturing effect has been achieved when radio-frequency (rf) power of about 20 Watt per one hollow cathode glow is applied for our RF Multi-Hollow cathode system. The black silicon etched surface shows almost zero reflectance in the visible region as well as in near IR region. The etched silicon surface is covered by columnar microstructures with diameters from 50 to 100 nm and depth of about 500 nm. We have successfully achieved 11.7% efficiency of mono-crystalline silicon solar cell and 10.2% multi-crystalline silicon solar cell.

The output characteristics of solar cell vary with load and solar insolation. Therefore solar cell must always track maximum power point. If photovoltaic system is stand-alone. It is necessary to maintain for output of voltage source inverter. In this paper, stand-alone photovoltaic system consists of boost chopper and voltage source inverter. We make it to track maximum power point by revolution of solar cell array instead of detecting situation of sun in any conditions. And we prove that maximum power point tracking by revolution of solar cell array is better than fixed solar cell.

Many mechanical systems are over-constrained if only rigid bodies are used to model the system. One example of such system is a satellite system with solar panels. To avoid this over-constrained problem, solar panels can be modeled as flexible bodies. The CMS(Component Mode Synthesis) method is widely used to analyze the flexible multi-body system because it can considerably approximate the deformation of the flexible bodies using small number of well-selected mode. However, it is very difficult to decide the boundary condition and the selection of modes. In this paper, the methods for mode synthesis and setting the boundary condition are presented to analyze the flexible multi-body system with over-constraints. Finally, the reliability of proposed method is verified by solar panel's deployment test.

The paper deals with a inverter control scheme to apply feeder flow control in the hybrid system consisted of a photovoltaic system and a fuel-cell system. The inverter operation modes and a feeder control reference is changed by changing of the loads. Simulation results using the PSCAD/EMTDC are presented to establish a inverter control method for a Feeder flow control mode.

This paper is proposed that the photovoltaic/fuel cell hybrid generation system for the stand-alone system. In case of the photovoltaic generation system, it depends on the weather condition, irradiation and so on... On the contrary, fuel cell has not this limitation. It can be interactive generation system between photovoltaic and fuel cell. This paper simulated stand-alone co-generation system based on the control of DC link. Moreover, 1[kw] BLDC motor system with speed and hysteresis current controller is used for the proposed system.

Generally, photovoltaic system is composed with several solar cell modules. For increasing power of photovoltaic systems, serial and parallel connection needed. A Desirable characteristic of a parallel supply system is that individual converters share the load current equally and stably. The current sharing(CS) can be implemented using two approaches. The first one, known as a droop method, relies on the high output impedance of each converter. and The second approach, known as active current-sharing techniques. In this paper, using droop method at parallel connection with it's convenience and simplicity.
