This paper adopts a proposed energy management controller in a micro grid. This micro grid integrates both a renewable energy source and energy storage systems. Photovoltaic (PV) is adopted as a main power source, a valve regulated lead acid battery, and Super-capacitor are the energy storage system. This hybrid energy storage integrates the advantages of a high energy density of the battery and a high power density of the super-capacitor to decrease the stress on the battery and to decrease the voltage change at transient conditions. The proposed controller consists of two control units. The First unit is used for …

A cantilever-electret based electrostatic micro-power generator for energy harvesting was set up in which Cyclic Transparent Optical Polymer (CYTOP) was used as the electret, and the upper electrode was made in form of an Ashaped cantilever which was fabricated from materials of copper with embedded glass epoxy. The cantilever was vibrated in the vertical direction in close to contact point mode of operation. Experimental result showed that the average output power increases with increasing electret surface potential, and the minimum distance to contact point decreases with increasing electret surface potential. Also, variation of output power with frequency was investigated by …
