| dc.description.abstract | Solar power, fuel cells, and supercapacitors are some hics. of the new energy devices that are being used today in various power applications. The first two of these devices are exciting alternative sources of clean energy. The third device is an important new energy storage device that has some properties of a battery and a capacitor allowing it to be used in applications where attributes of both are needed. To realize the full potential of these energy sources, novel engineering strategies have to be implemented to manage the conversion of power. Since these devices are relatively new and their development is constantly maturing, a introduction to these devices will be a useful to those unfamiliar with the state of the art of solar cells, fuel cells, and supercapacitors. In this paper characteristics of each technology will be reviewed and design consideration will be discussed, and methods of utilizing each of these devices will be offered. | en |
