- Additional information
- The method developed only requires current feedback information to generate control actions, reducing the capital cost and the complexity of the system at the same time. Numerical results demonstrated that compared with conventional perturbation and observation method, a much faster tracking speed and efficiency improvement up to 5% can be achieved. The work in this paper was used to build upon the funding application for FLEXIS and RICE projects. Through the contribution of co-author Jon Maddy, the work also helped in preparation of the royal society policy briefing “Options for producing low-carbon hydrogen at scale”.
