<b> </b>The adoption of Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEVs) is widely seen as an interim solution for the decarbonization of the transport sector. Within a PHEV, determining the required energy storage capacity of the battery remains one of the primary concerns for vehicle manufacturers and system...

Energy storage systems (ESSs) play an important role in the performance and economy of electrified vehicles. Hybrid energy storage system (HESS) combining both lithium-ion cells and supercapacitors is one of the most promising solutions. This paper discusses the optimal HESS dimensioning and...

When designing a building energy system based on renewable energy sources, a major challenge is the suitable sizing of its components. In this paper, a simulation tool is presented for determining the optimal sizes of the main components of a stand-alone building energy system which integrates...
