Autonomous drone charging station planning through solar energy
In their study, the optimal location and capacity of fast-charging stations and renewable energy sources are simultaneously determined, while deviation paths and
Containerized Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) are essentially large batteries housed within storage containers. These systems are designed to store energy from renewable sources or the grid and release it when required. This setup offers a modular and scalable solution to energy storage.
Last but not least, the battery power the drone at a low altitude in case of a complete solar power shortage. According to the proposed PMS, the wind effect is taken into account in this simulation study, which results in about 23.5% greater energy savings than another management strategy.
These energy storage containers often lower capital costs and operational expenses, making them a viable economic alternative to traditional energy solutions. The modular nature of containerized systems often results in lower installation and maintenance costs compared to traditional setups.
Dang et al. (2021) propose a multi-criteria decision-making framework for island photovoltaic charging station site selection. While literature is abundant on ground vehicles and ships, UAVs have had less share of this focus. Compared to ground vehicles, the average UAV range is 3 km, which is significantly lower.
