Degradation‐aware energy management for photovoltaic‐storage‐charging microgrids under extreme operating environments: A comprehensive review

open access: yesEnergy Conversion and Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Photovoltaic‐storage‐charging microgrids (PSCMs) are being increasingly deployed in extreme environments, including desert, polar, coastal and high‐altitude regions, to provide a reliable and sustainable power supply. However, these harsh environments significantly accelerate the degradation of photovoltaic arrays, battery storage systems and ...

Spaceflight and sport science: Physiological monitoring and countermeasures for the astronaut–athlete on Mars exploration missions

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Long‐duration spaceflight impacts essentially every system in the human body, resulting in multisystem deconditioning that might impair the health and performance of crewmembers, particularly on long‐duration exploration missions to Mars. In this review, we apply the sport science model of athlete monitoring, testing and training to astronauts;

Hybrid PV System with High Speed Flywheel Energy Storage for Remote Residential Loads

open access: yesClean Technologies, 2021
Due to low system inertia in microgrids, frequencies may vary rapidly from the nominal value, leading to the complete blackout of the system unless there is an adequate spinning reserve available for balancing the supply with the demand load.
