This book focuses on the methods of storage commonly used inhybrid systems.
After an introductory chapter reviewing the basics ofelectrochemistry, Chapter 2 is given over to the storage ofelectricity in the form of hydrogen. Once hydrogen has been made,we have to be able to convert it back into electricity on demand.This can be done with another energy converter: a fuel cell, thesubject of Chapter 3. Such a system is unable to deliversignificant dynamics in terms of storage and release of electricityand needs to be supplemented with another solution: a detailedstudy of supercapacitors is provided in Chapter 4.While the storagesystems touched upon in the previous three chapters (hydrogenbatteries and supercapacitors) both exhibit advantageouscharacteristics, at present they are still relatively costly. Thus,the days of the electrochemical accumulator by no means appear tobe numbered just yet. This will therefore be the topic of Chapter5. Finally, on the basis of the elements laid down in the previouschapters, Chapter 6 will focus on electrical hybridization of thesestorage systems, with a view to enhancing the performance (in termsof energy, lifetime, cost, etc.) of the newly formed system.
Aimed at an audience of researchers, industrialists, academics,teachers and students, many exercises, along with correctedsolutions, are provided throughout the book.

He also leads a research team devoted to hybrid electricalsystems in the FEMTO-ST Institute (CNRS). He has published morethan 250 research papers on modeling, control, diagnostics andprognostics of hybrid electrical systems.
Hamid Gualous is Full Professor at the University of Caen LowerNormandy in France and director of the LUSAC laboratory. Hiscurrent research interests include power electronics, electricenergy storage, power and energy systems and energymanagement.
Christophe Turpin is Full Researcher at the CNRS (French NationalCenter for Scientific Research). He is responsible for hydrogenactivities within the Laboratory LAPLACE, Toulouse, France. Hisresearch activities include the characterization and modeling offuel cells and electrolyzers, the state of health of thesecomponents, and their hybridization with other electrochemicalcomponents (ultracapacitors, batteries) within optimized energysystems for stationary and aeronautical applications.
