[IEEE 2018 IEEE Innovative Smart Grid Technologies - Asia (ISGT Asia) - Singapore (2018.5.22-2018.5.25)] 2018 IEEE Innovative Smart Grid Technologies - Asia (ISGT Asia) - Spatial Data-Based Techno-economic Evaluation of Solar Hydrogen Production in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) Region
摘要： The Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region is endowed with solar energy that can be harvested and stored as hydrogen, which has gained increasing focus as a secondary energy medium. This paper introduces modeling and feasibility analysis of cost-optimized hydrogen production, storage, shipment, and methanation in the MENA region. The analysis is based on the economic modeling of hydrogen production through the combination of photovoltaic solar power and electrolysis systems, utilizing NASA surface Meteorology and Solar Energy database (2010)[1]. A system of 100MW grid-connected photovoltaic PV power plant (grid-PV) in combination with hydrogen producing electrolyzer are simulated using spatial data for the MENA region. Then, the simulation assesses cost of methane production by Sabatier synthesis of carbon dioxide. The unit cost of hydrogen from a system, which consists of 100MW PV solar plant and electrolyzer, ranged 4-8 US$/kg. Methanation was found to be expensive vis-à-vis regionally traded natural gas. Location is a major determinant to hydrogen cost due to the difference in irradiation and logistics. In conclusion, this paper can serve as an atlas for mapping the cost of solar power and hydrogen production in the MENA region, and facilitates further research in the future.

Benefit-based cost allocation for residentially distributed photovoltaic systems in China: A cooperative game theory approach
摘要： Distributed photovoltaic (PV) systems have constantly been the key to achieve a low-carbon economy in China. However, the development of Chinese distributed PV systems has failed to meet expectations because of their irrational profit and cost allocations. In this study, the methodology for calculating the levelized cost of energy (LCOE) for PV is thoroughly discussed to address this issue. A mixed-integer linear programming model is built to determine the optimal system operation strategy with a benefit analysis. An externality-corrected mathematical model based on Shapley value is established to allocate the cost of distributed PV systems in 15 Chinese cities between the government, utility grid and residents. Results show that (i) an inverse relationship exists between the LCOEs and solar radiation levels; (ii) the government and residents gain extra benefits from the utility grid through net metering policies, and the utility grid should be the highly subsidized participant; (iii) the percentage of cost assigned to the utility grid and government should increase with the expansion of battery bank to weaken the impact of demand response on increasing theoretical subsidies; and (iv) apart from the LCOE, the local residential electricity prices remarkably impact the subsidy calculation results.

Performance evaluation of a MPPT controller with model predictive control for a photovoltaic system
摘要： Efficiency has been a major factor in the growth of photovoltaic (PV) systems. Different control techniques have been explored to extract maximum power from PV systems under varying environmental conditions. This paper evaluates the performance of a new improved control technique known as model predictive control (MPC) in power extraction from PV systems. Exploiting the ability of MPC to predict future state of controlled variables, MPC has been implemented for tacking of maximum power point (MPP) of a PV system. Application of MPC for maximum power point tracking (MPPT) has been found to result into faster tracking of MPP under continuously varying atmospheric conditions providing an efficient system. It helps in reducing unwanted oscillations with an increase in tracking speed. A detailed step by step process of designing a model predictive controller has been discussed. Here, MPC has been applied in conjunction with conventional perturb and observe (P&O) method for controlling the dc-dc boost converter switching, harvesting maximum power from a PV array. The results of MPC controller has been compared with two widely used conventional methods of MPPT, viz. incremental conductance method and P&O method. The MPC controller scheme has been designed, implemented and tested in MATLAB/Simulink environment and has also been experimentally validated using a laboratory prototype of a PV system.

[IEEE 2019 IEEE International Instrumentation and Measurement Technology Conference (I2MTC) - Auckland, New Zealand (2019.5.20-2019.5.23)] 2019 IEEE International Instrumentation and Measurement Technology Conference (I2MTC) - Waveguide Joint Design and Validation for use in Acoustic Vector-corrected Network Analysers
摘要： Cameras embedded in consumer devices have previously been used as physiological information sensors. The waveform of the photoplethysmographic image (PPGi) signals may be significantly affected by the light spectra and intensity. The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the performance of PPGi waveform acquisition in the red, green, and blue channels using a commercial camera in different light conditions. The system, developed for this paper, comprises of a commercial camera and light sources with varied spectra and intensities. Signals were acquired from the fingertips of 12 healthy subjects. Extensive experiments, using different wavelength lights and white light with variation light intensities, respectively, reported in this paper, showed that almost all light spectra can acquire acceptable pulse rates, but only 470-, 490-, 505-, 590-, 600-, 610-, 625-, and 660-nm wavelength lights showed better performance in PPGi waveform compared with gold standard. With lower light intensity, the light spectra >600 nm still showed better performance. The change in pulse amplitude (ac) and dc amplitude was also investigated with the different light intensity and light spectra. With increasing light intensity, the dc amplitude increased, whereas ac component showed an initial increase followed by a decrease. Most of the subjects achieved their maximum averaging ac output when averaging dc output was in the range from 180 to 220 pixel values (8 b, 255 maximum pixel value). The results suggested that an adaptive solution could be developed to optimize the design of PPGi-based physiological signal acquisition devices in different light conditions.

Graphene Quantum Dots with High Yield and High Quality Synthesized from Low Cost Precursor of Aphanitic Graphite
摘要： It is di?cult to keep the balance of high quality and high yield for graphene quantum dots (GQDs). Because the quality is uncontrollable during cutting large 2D nanosheets to small 0D nanodots by top-down methods and the yield is low for GQDs with high quality obtained from bottom-up strategy. Here, aphanitic graphite (AG), a low-cost graphite contains a large amount of small graphite nanocrystals with size of about 10 nm is used as the precursor of graphene oxide quantum dots (GO-QDs) for the ?rst time. GO-QDs with high yield and high quality were successfully obtained directly by liquid phase exfoliating AG without high strength cutting. The yield of these GO-QDs can reach up to 40 wt. %, much higher than that obtained from ?ake graphite (FG) precursor (less than 10 wt. %). The size of GO-QDs can be controlled in 2–10 nm. The average thickness of GO-QDs is about 3 nm, less than 3 layer of graphene sheet. Graphene quantum dots (GQDs) with di?erent surface properties can be easily obtained by simple hydrothermal treatment of GO-QDs, which can be used as highly e?cient ?uorescent probe. Developing AG as precursor for GQDs o?ers a way to produce GQDs in a low-cost, highly e?ective and scalable manner.

Anthradithiophene based hole-transport material for efficient and stable perovskite solar cells
摘要： A novel hole-transport material (HTM) based on an anthradithiophene central bridge named BTPA-7 is developed. In comparison to spiro-OMeTAD (2,2’,7,7’-tetrakis-(N,N-di-p-methoxyphenylamine)-9,9’-spirobifluorene), the synthetic steps of BTPA-7 are greatly reduced from 6 to 3 and the synthetic cost of BTPA-7 is nearly a half that of spiro-OMeTAD. Moreover, BTPA-7 exhibits a relatively lower conductivity but higher hole mobility and higher glass transition temperature (Tg) than spiro-OMeTAD. Compared with the photovolatic performance for spiro-OMeTAD, FA0.85MA0.15PbI3 and MAPbI3 PSC devices based on BTPA-7 exhibit slightly lower PCEs with the values of 17.58% (18.88% for spiro-OMeTAD) and 11.90% (13.25% for spiro-OMeTAD), respectively. Nevertheless, a dramatically higher Jsc of PSC based on BTPA-7 is achieved, which arises from the higher hole mobility of BTPA-7. In addition, the relatively hydrophobic character of BTPA-7 eventually enhances the PSC device stability. Lower cost, higher hole mobility, higher Tg, satisfactory photovoltaic performance, and superior device stability of BTPA-7 can be utilized as a substitute for spiro-OMeTAD in PSCs.

Facile synthesis of a??lucky clovera?? hole-transport material for efficient and stable large-area perovskite solar cells
摘要： Hole-transporting materials (HTMs) play a vital role of transporting holes from the perovskite layer to the counter electrode in perovskite solar cells (PSCs). A novel HTM BTPA-8 is feasibly synthesized by incorporating four dimethoxytriphenylamine leaflets and anthracene-based central bridge. BTPA-8 exhibits a suitable band alignment with MAPbI3 (MA ? CH3NH3) or FA0.85MA0.15PbI3 (FA?HC(NH2)2), high hole mobility, and high thermal stability. The best FA0.85MA0.15PbI3 device based on BTPA-8 exhibits a power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 17.99% in the reverse scan with an aperture area of 0.09 cm2. Under the same condition, a PCE of 18.92% is achieved by the solar cell based on the standard spiro-OMeTAD (2,2,7,7-tetrakis-(N,N-di-p-methoxyphenylamine)-9,9-spirobifluorene). A comparable PCE of 12.31% is also obtained for BTPA-8 based MAPbI3 device compared with spiro-OMeTAD (13.25%) with an aperture area >1 cm2. BTPA-8 based PSCs exhibit better long-term stability than spiro-OMeTAD due to its high hydrophobicity. A lower synthesis cost of BTPA-8 than that of spiro-OMeTAD along with the elevated long-term stability makes it promising for application in PSCs.

[IEEE 2019 IEEE 46th Photovoltaic Specialists Conference (PVSC) - Chicago, IL, USA (2019.6.16-2019.6.21)] 2019 IEEE 46th Photovoltaic Specialists Conference (PVSC) - Alleviating performance and cost constraints in silicon heterojunction cells with HJT 2.0
摘要： When considering silicon heterojunction technology (HJT) for mass production the most frequently expressed reservations are related to the performance and cost constraints the standard TCO on the cell front side namely thin indium tin oxide (ITO) constitutes. We address these concerns with our HJT 2.0 concept in which the front electrode is made of a bi-layer of ITO that is supplemented by a silicon nitride (SiN) layer. This cell concept was developed to yield an increase in efficiency of typically 0.2% absolute due to improved cell current and a cost saving in the range of 30-40% with respect to cost of ownership (CoO).

Ternary copolymerization strategy reducing the cost of benzodithiophenea??benzodithiophenedione polymer, retaining high photovoltaic performance
摘要： The photovoltaic performance of organic solar cells has been rapidly improved. However, in actual production and application, there are still many challenges for organic photovoltaic devices and one of the important strategies to facilitate industrialization is reducing material price. The BDT-BDD binary copolymer donor material has good photovoltaic performance. However, the high price of benzodithiophenedione (BDD) monomer limits its industrialization. In contrast, benzotriazole (BTA) monomers with lower price possess an enormous potential to solve this problem. Therefore, in this paper, it is reported that the synthesis of ternary copolymerization by adding BTA units into BDT-BDD copolymer with two different acceptor units. Through research, it is found that such a strategy can effectively reduce the price of BDT-BDD polymer, and increasing the content of BTA units in polymer to reduce the content of expensive BDD units can still retain the excellent photovoltaic properties of BDT-BDD polymer. When only 20 mol % of BDD units remained, the bulk-heterojunction (BHJ) structure with the synthesized donor polymer and acceptor ITIC can achieve an open circuit voltage of 0.913 V with a short circuit current of 16.87 mA cm-2 and 9.12% maximum photoelectric conversion efficiency, which is much cheaper than BDT-BDD polymer, in terms of structural units. Therefore, the results show that the addition of BTA can effectively reduce the material cost (vs. BDD only) while retaining the good photovoltaic properties of the material, and has a certain guiding effect on the commercialization of OSC.
