Investigation of distributed power generation based on renewable energy sources and hydrogen batteries

The paper deals with investigation of distributed renewable power sources use efficiency by the example of solar power plant, wind farm and biogas power plants. The paper uses statistical data collection on weather conditions and solar radiation in different regions of the Russian Federation to assess effectiveness. It has been found out that arrangement of solar power plants and wind farms in the Republic of Bashkortostan is more profitable than their arrangement in other regions (Astrakhan, Vladivostok, Gorno-Altaisk, Makhachkala, St. Petersburg), and the use of biogas power plant is profitable in the region, where the production of biofuels is possible, including the Republic of Bashkortostan. Moreover, the paper presents a high-speed magnetoelectric generator for microturbines. In order to save and generate electric energy in accordance with consumer load curve, hydrogen batteries have been examined.
