  • Energy Management System Comparison Among Fuzzy Strategies
    Julio C. Peña-Aguirre, Francisco J. Pérez-Pinal, Yosafat J. Samano-Flores, Alejandro I. Barranco-Gutierrez, Gilberto Gonzalez Gomez, Tomas Serrano Ramirez
    IEEE Access, 2025
    This study evaluates and compares energy management systems (EMS) for hybrid vehicles using fuzzy logic strategies to optimize energy distribution between fuel cells (FC) and batteries. Key components, including the Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC) and the Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM), were modeled and validated using MATLAB-Simulink, LabVIEW, and Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) testing. Peña’s EMS demonstrated the highest efficiency, achieving a fuel cell average power output of 8.5 kW, an efficiency of 74.35%, and a state of charge (SOC) improvement of 34.25%. Other strategies, including those of Esoufi, Hemi, and Zhao, exhibited average power outputs ranging from 7.28 to 7.79 kW and SOC improvements of 22.96% to 28.35%. These results emphasize the advantages of Peña’s fuzzy logic-based EMS in balancing energy demands, reducing battery stress, and extending battery life under urban driving conditions. The findings highlight fuzzy logic as a superior approach to traditional methods for managing hybrid vehicle powertrains, particularly in scenarios with frequent acceleration and deceleration.
  • Fuzzy Logic Power Management Strategy for a Residential DC-Microgrid

    IEEE Access, 2020
    Power management strategies (PMS) are applied to keep a balance, between different energy sources (i.e. solar, wind, geothermal, hydro), storage units (i.e. fuel cell, batteries, fly wheel) and loads. Up to date, there has been reported several advance techniques to solve this task, for instance: Fuzzy Logic, Deep Learning, Droop Control, Bayesian Networks, among others. Nevertheless, some of those PMS are over simplified and others are too complex to be programmed in devices with limited resources. To solve these issues, this paper proposes a PMS based on Fuzzy Logic, which keeps a balance between those two goals. Characteristics of the proposed PMS are a small number of rules; fulfillment of the demanded power at every time; reducing use of the storage unit; and keeping a balance between the different sources, storage unit and loads. The proposed PMS is numerically evaluated by using SIMULINK-MATLAB®, in a 10kW residential DC Microgrid (MG), and validated by using a Hardware in the Loop platform (NI myRio-1900 and Typhoon HIL402). A comparison with three popular advance techniques demonstrates the feasibility of the proposed PMS.
