III. Core Control Technology: Intelligent Battery Management
- Battery Selection and Basics:
 
- Type: This solution selects maintenance-free lead-acid batteries, which are technologically mature and low-cost, suitable for small-scale wind-solar hybrid systems.
 
- Working Principle: Battery charging and discharging are essentially processes of converting electrical energy to chemical energy and vice versa. However, due to phenomena like electrode polarization, the energy conversion efficiency cannot reach 100%.
 
- Control Challenges and Optimization Strategy:
 
- Drawbacks of Traditional Control: Classic PID control methods heavily rely on an accurate mathematical model of the controlled object (the battery). The battery is a nonlinear, time-varying system whose parameters (internal resistance, electrolyte density, etc.) change dynamically with environmental temperature and usage state, making it difficult to establish a precise model. This leads to challenges in tuning traditional PID parameters, poor adaptability, and suboptimal control performance.
 
- Adopted Advanced Control Method: This solution employs a Fuzzy-PID composite control strategy, combining the advantages of both:
 
- Advantage of Fuzzy Control: Does not require an exact mathematical model of the controlled object, can handle imprecise input information, exhibits strong adaptability to changes in battery parameters, and can incorporate expert knowledge.
 
- Advantage of PID Control: Can achieve high-precision, zero steady-state error control when the system deviation is small.
 
- Controller Workflow: The system continuously monitors the difference e(t) between the battery's set voltage and its actual voltage. When the deviation e(t) is large, fuzzy control dominates for a rapid response. When e(t) decreases within a certain range, it smoothly switches to PID control for fine-tuning. Ultimately, the output signal u(t) is adjusted to control the MOSFET's duty cycle, achieving dynamic optimization of the charging current.
 
IV. Solution Summary and Prospects
- Control Effectiveness: The wind-solar hybrid power generation control system designed in this solution successfully achieves optimal battery charge/discharge management through the complementary intelligent Fuzzy-PID control algorithm. This not only effectively protects the battery and extends its service life but also enhances the capture efficiency of wind and solar energy via MPPT, thereby improving the comprehensive efficiency of the entire power generation system.
 
- Experimental Verification: Experimental results show that the controller is correctly and feasibly designed, operates safely and reliably, and exhibits good dynamic response performance and steady-state accuracy.
 
- Application Prospects: This integrated wind-solar hybrid power generation solution with intelligent battery management technology is particularly suitable for scenarios such as remote areas without grid coverage, islands, pastures, and communication base stations. It offers significant economic and social benefits and has broad application prospects.
