Variability represents the main problem related to renewable energies. Their intermittent nature constitutes the greatest obstacle to their complete adoption. For this reason, and despite the efforts made in this field, renewable energies are not yet able to replace fossil fuels, hence the importance of prediction. This work proposes a new method of photovoltaic energy prediction, founded on dynamic behavior analysis. This approach is to use phase space reconstruction, to build the input of the neural network in order to take into account the dynamics of the system in the forecasting process. Then, to improve the precision, we introduce the wavelet transformation. We tested this approach on photovoltaic production of the Faculty of Science and Technology of Beni Mellal, Morocco. Finally, the comparison between predictions and actual observations confirmed the effectiveness of our approach.

Fired clay bricks has been manufactured the same way for decades which makes it old and uncompetitive compared to other products like concrete. If they want to stay in the market for more years, researchers must improve their quality. The main objective of this work is to enhance the process of making bricks, this study aims to improve the thermal conductivity of the bricks and decrease the environmental issues related to it. The process of making bricks will be described and analyzed in the second part of this paper, and solutions will be proposed to the Moroccan companies to enhance the process. The main goal in the third part is to study the effect of a smaller grain size distribution on the properties of the brick by manufacturing two kind of brick: handmade fired brick and foam fired brick. The properties of the bricks manufactured in the lab will be compared to normal bricks, in order, to study the physical, thermal and mechanical properties that characterize each type. Foam bricks will show great result concerning the apparent porosity and the water absorption which will lead to a better thermal insulation. Handmade bricks will be characterized by the best density and linear dying shrinkage which can lead to a better mechanical strength. Normal bricks will show combined properties.

This work presents an improved approach of control for charging a lithium-ion battery with two different topologies of chargers i.e., forward converter and single ended primary inductor converter (SEPIC). In order to fulfill the customer power requirements in terms of accuracy and rapidity, the electrical system gathered topology/control is testing all the performance constraints such as, the instability of the power system and how the energy conversion devices would react efficiently to any kind of perturbations. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed topologies operated under a management algorithm of voltage/peak current mode control.

The objective of this work is to perform a parametric study in order to investigate the thermal performance of an earth to air heat exchanger (EAHX) for buildings’ air cooling in a hot semi-arid climate. The effect of the EAHX pipes’ length and diameter as well as the burying depth, the air velocity, the number of pipes and pipes spacing, identified as the main influential parameters for a given location, were numerically investigated. The cooling performance of the EAHX was assessed using an indicator called the “maximum daily cooling efficiency” which expresses the ratio of the maximum outdoor air temperature drop, after its passage through the EAHX buried pipes, to the potential of this drop. The latter is the temperature difference between the outdoor air and the soil at the maximum depth considered in this study. Continuous operation mode during the cooling season is considered. Simulations of all combinations of the EAHX main influential parameters are performed using TYPE 460 of TRNSYS. The results are presented in terms of the “daily maximum cooling efficiency” charts for combinations of two parameters while the others are maintained at their reference values. The results show that the effect of the EAHX burying depth and pipes’ spacing are not significant beyond 4m and 4D respectively. Some guidelines for the design of the EAHX are drawn.

A novel method for long term forecasting of wind speed distribution is proposed based on the concept of training neural network. A phase space reconstruction method is used to track the evolution of the wind speed distribution function parameters in a dynamic system. Then, the neural network training and forecasting features are used to learn nonlinear model between historical data and next observation. Moreover, different estimators have been applied and compared to fit the annual distribution of the wind speed in the studied sites before applying the proposed approach. The proposed method shows a good performance and could be successfully applied in wind energy yield.

This paper presents an innovative low cost cleaning technique for photovoltaic panels on a bi-axial solar tracking system from Helioslite. This competitive solution exploits the motion of the tracker and the gravity effect. The cleaning tests were carried out and validated using an optimal design of the cleaning system prototype. These have been achieved using a locally developed prototype of the Helioslite bi-axial tracker. As a perspective and before proceeding to the realization of the cleaning system in real dimensions, other tests should be conducted in order to ensure the effectiveness of this innovative cleaning system.

in this paper, a scheme of standalone off-grid solar photovoltaic water pumping system based on quasi z source inverter and battery/supercapacitor hybrid energy storage is proposed. The most challenge in photovoltaic pumping system is how to ensure a higher sufficient useful power in all really meteorological and daily water conditions. The main objective of this study is to improve the reliability of the conventional photovoltaic pumping system by appropriate hybrid combination of battery-supercapacitor energy storage. The quasi z source inverter used in this structure make it possible to establish the simultaneous control of the photovoltaic maximum power and real time motor speed regulation. Also, their structures give the opportunity to integrate several storage systems in parallel with the capacitance in the impedance network. For that, the batteries are used to compensate the long time power lack can be occurred in the installation because it has a high energy density. In other hand, supercapacitors are used to improve the battery lifetime and reduce the life cycle cost of the photovoltaic pumping system, hence, they are integrated to reimburse the transitory moments time produced by fast climatic and pump speed variations because it has a high power density and a large cycle life. The analysis is carried out through simulation in the Matlab™ environment, the results obtained clearly depicts the robustness of the proposed control system and the power flow performance enhancement.

In this paper we present modeling and simulation of a PV/Diesel/Battery system connected to grid with fuzzy logic controllers. The inverter receives increased interest in grid connected PV systems which converts the output direct current of PV to alternating current in order to inject power into grid, and a great deal of research has been done on inverter control. In this work, two fuzzy logic controllers were applied in inverter control. The first fuzzy logic controller was used to track maximum power point at PV array output. This technique named MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking). To control reactive power injected from inverter to grid or to diesel generator a second fuzzy logic controller was used in order to get voltage and current outputs signals in phase. This technique is named PFC (Power factor control). For this aim effectiveness, robustness and stability were verified in Matlab/Simulink.

In this work, the plasma gasification is assessed and compared to the conventional entrained flow technology in an equilibrium-based power plant gasification simulation model. The two power plant models are developed within Aspen Plus environment representing an integrated plasma- and entrained flow-gasification combined cycles (IPGCC, and IGCC). They are fed with abundant feedstock consists of MSW and Petroleum Hydrocarbon Waste sludge (PHW). These are initially analyzed according to their proximate and ultimate analyses. Thereafter, using Abu Dhabi city with a population of nearly 2,000,000 residents the total amount of generated waste is estimated. Next, different parametric studies are carried out under variable oxidizer fraction and MSW-PHW co-gasification mixture. It was found, at a daily feed of 1,338 tons consisting of 90% MSW and 10% PHW, the total electrical power generation is 81 MW using IPGCC plant and 100.2 MW using IGCC. The corresponding overall efficiencies are 33.6% for the former and 41.4% for the later.
