Energy storage systems and electric vehicles are essential in stabilizing microgrids, particularly those with a high reliance on intermittent renewable energy sources. Storage systems, such as batteries, are essential for smoothing out the fluctuations that arise from renewable energy generation.
The integration of energy storage systems (ESS) and electric vehicles (EVs) into microgrids has become critical to mitigate these issues, facilitating more efficient energy flows, reducing operational costs, and enhancing grid resilience.
5. Conclusions In this paper, we introduced multifunctional energy storage composites (MESCs), a novel form of structurally-integrated batteries fabricated in a unique material vertical integration process.
Fuzzy logic, in particular, has proven effective in managing the uncertainties inherent in renewable energy generation, as well as the variability of energy demand . This approach allows for dynamic decision-making, making it highly applicable for managing EVs as mobile storage units in microgrids [30, 60].
Multifunctional energy storage composites (MESC) embed battery layers in structures. Interlocking rivets anchor battery layers which contribute to mechanical performance. Experimental testing of MESC shows comparable electrochemical behavior to baseline. At 60% packing efficiency, MESC gain 15× mechanical rigidity compared to pouch cells.
A key contribution of this work is the comprehensive evaluation of the synergies between EVs as mobile storage resources and energy storage systems, providing insights into novel solutions such as hybrid AC/DC microgrids, intelligent control strategies, and multi-objective optimization techniques.
