ELECTRIC POWER SUPPLY SYSTEM, AND CONTROL DEVICE AND CONTROL METHOD FOR ELECTRIC POWER SUPPLY SYSTEM
An electric power supply system includes: a hydrogen production device producing hydrogen using electric power supplied from a natural-energy power generator; a hydrogen storage device storing the produced hydrogen; a fuel cell system generating electricity using the stored hydrogen to supply the generated electric power to a load; an electric power accumulator accumulating electric power supplied from the natural-energy power generator, to supply the accumulated power to the load; and a control device controls supply of electric power from the fuel cell system and the electric power accumulator to the load. The control device executes a first control for supplying electric power to the load from each of the electric power accumulator and the fuel cell system in a time zone in which demanded power of the load is smaller than electric power dischargeable from the electric power accumulator.
Electric Vehicle Battery Power Extender
This invention provides an enhanced electric vehicle battery powering and recharging system technology, particularly when the vehicle is moving or when wind or air comes in contact with the vehicle wind-power electric generator propeller system. The invention can be installed in partial or fully electric land, air, or water vehicles, to power or recharge the vehicle's battery system. This invention will extend a vehicle's travel distance before or without stopping and connecting to fossil fuel or other stationary rechargeable power sources. The vehicle's wind-powered electric generator invention is an additional battery charging technology that will support any partial or fully electric-powered vehicle. The invention can be installed in a partial or fully electric-powered vehicle as a hardware component and software program, without any interferences with existing vehicle electric battery charging systems.
Power Generation using a Paraglider and Motion along the Control Cable
In the current invention, the parafoil follows a longitudinal trajectory away or towards the generator. The work is created along the path of the line, not across. When the parafoil is extended away from the vehicle generating power, the parafoil is set by the control system in a high drag configuration. When the parafoil reaches the end of the line (or close to it), the controller sets up the parafoil in the retraction mode. In this mode, the parafoil still creates lift, but, at a significantly lower drag, and therefore, the ground station can easily retrieve it by pulling the line towards the vehicles.
