New Off-Grid Power Supply System for Oil Pipeline Monitoring
This paper proposes an off-grid power supply system comprised of a reversible solid oxide fuel cell (RESOC), photovoltaic (PV) and battery. Minimum operating costs and the reliability of system operations under constraint conditions are the key determining objectives. An oil and gas pipeline monitoring platform uses internet of things (IoT) to ensure safe operation in remote and unattended areas, through automatic monitoring and systematic control on equipment such as the cut-off valves and cathodic protection systems. Based in Dubai, Sunergy has pioneered a game-changing solution: Direct Methanol Fuel Cell (DMFC) technology specifically engineered for the extreme conditions of Middle East and African oil fields. Our systems eliminate the instability of AC inverters, providing flicker-free, battery-backed DC power that ensures your AI-driven cameras and thermal sensors remain.
