It provides clean and sustainable energy that benefits the environment. Nanoparticle PCM is used to reduce drying time and enhance the thermal conductivity of solar drying during the drying process. The mathematical model analyzes moisture loss, drying time, and crop quality. Machine learning tools simplify the modeling, design, forecasting, simulation, optimization, and problem detection of any drying system with high accuracy in less time than conventional methods. ML analyzes data from many sensors, such as humidity, temperature, solar radiation, and temperature, to make real-time adjustments to improve product quality and efficiency. Radial Basis function (RBF), Multilayered Perceptron (MPL), Artificial Neural Network (ANN), and Support Vector Machine (SVM) are algorithms used in ML to control and optimize the drying process in solar dryers are cost-effective, reduce the time required for accurate results, and enhance the energy efficiency, product quality, and overall sustainability in solar drying. This review paper shows that an ML-based system makes the dryer more sustainable and economical. RBF's lowest RMSE (0.99 and 33.67 for dried temperature and mass) provided better accuracy. The study found a net annual benefit of $ 3000 for the ML-based system and $ 1000 for the conventional system.

Conventional unscented transformation based unscented Kalman filters (UT-UKF) are very useful for moderately non-linear systems with Gaussian noise distribution data during state update. However, it provides satisfactory results only for highly non-linear and non-Gaussian data. This paper provides a robust generalized unscented transformation based unscented Kalman filter (RGenUT-UKF) for SoC accurate estimation of real-world drive cycle. This proposed approach effectively captures highly non-Gaussian and non-linear characteristics using distribution-free non-linear transformation with optimally tuned noise covariance matrices ensuring reliability against unseen real-time data. The generalized unscented transformation technique uses higher order moments, in addition to mean and covariance for sigma points selection for enhancement of filter performance. This study deals with the development of an equivalent circuit model (ECM)-based GenUT-UKF for the estimation of SoC of Turnigy Graphene Li-ion battery for different drive cycles that include LA92, US06, and UDDS drive cycle. The efficacy of the proposed algorithm has been demonstrated by comparing it with UT-UKF and GenUT-extended Kalman filter (GenUT-EKF). Additionally, analysis of the robustness of the proposed algorithm has been made with LA92 drive cycle at 40°C against data uncertainties such as 5 % sensor noise to the battery current, ambient temperature variations (0°C, 10°C and 25°C) and model uncertainty in the noise covariance matrices (Q and R). The proposed GenUT-UKF showed outperformance over UT-UKF and GenUT-EKF against sensor noise, ambient temperature variations, and model uncertainty with RMSE of 0.2780%, 0.7842 %, and 0.7843 % respectively. Finally, a RGenUT-UKF has been designed by optimally tuned noise covariance matrices for the LA92 drive cycle using the Bayesian optimization technique. Improved performance of the proposed method has been ensured with a minimum RMSE of 0.4099 %. In addition, the efficacy of the proposed algorithm has been demonstrated under complex working conditions through simulation as well as experimental studies. The practicability of realizing the algorithm has been demonstrated with RT-LAB-based real-time simulator using software-in-the-loop (SIL) configuration.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":15942,"journal":{"name":"Journal of energy storage","volume":"119 ","pages":"Article 116360"},"PeriodicalIF":8.9,"publicationDate":"2025-03-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143725202","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In response to this need, this research presents a comprehensive framework that integrates X2Y technologies and energy storage systems (ESSs) into renewable-integrated multi-energy systems. The proposed energy hub (EH) is designed to optimize both economic and environmental performance by minimizing operational costs and pollutant emissions. The EH model integrates multiple components, including photovoltaic (PV) systems, wind turbines (WTs), combined heat and power (CHP) units, and storage devices for electricity, heat, gas, water, and ice. Additionally, energy conversion technologies such as power-to-gas (P2G), electric chillers (EC), absorption chillers (AC), and electric heat pumps (EHP) enhance the system's flexibility to meet diverse energy demands. A dual-objective optimization approach is employed, focusing on minimizing operational costs and reducing emissions to balance economic and environmental priorities. This optimization strategy ensures efficient utilization of renewable energy sources (RESs) and mitigates grid instability caused by variable energy generation. The proposed methodology significantly reduces renewable energy curtailment, enhances system resilience, and contributes to climate change mitigation efforts. The framework's effectiveness was evaluated using the standard IEEE 69-bus network as a test case. The results of this evaluation demonstrate substantial improvements: about 40 % increase in social welfare, a 34.02 % reduction in emissions, and a 20.4 % reduction in the curtailment (unused or wasted) of renewable energy generation. The incorporation of power-to-gas technology, a key example of an X2Y technology, led to a significant decrease in natural gas consumption, reducing it to 2148 kcf.
