Concept of Increasing Energy Storage Capacity using Two Energy Banks via integrating a Bidirectional Switching System

An efficient bidirectional charging-discharging switching system for two energy banks application is proposed. The system accepts the regulated charges from the charge controller before storing into the respective energy bank. When extra solar energy is available, the system is able store the energy into the storage bank that is connected to the system. On the other hand, either energy bank will also be able to discharge or charge while the photovoltaic system is operating. The proposed system can draw maximum of 10 Ampere current to charge and discharge when it is connected to photovoltaic system. This paper is organized to discuss the flaw in solar energy application system, brief introduction about the conventional solar energy storage application system, research motivation, research methodology about the proposed system, overall system discussion and finally the conclusion.
