Autonomous Mobile Energy System Modeling and Optimization

The proposed research project is targeted to develop an accurate mathematical description for control and optimization of the Autonomous Mobile Energy system (AMES) and its integration with potential applications in mining, water desalination and other areas. The system incorporates solar thermal system thermal energy storage and an auxiliary energy source and will provide uninterrupted clean energy with no fuel supply or power grid connection required. Ascent Systems Technologies will benefit by being able to realize a full-scale functional prototype of the module. With the eventual commercialization of the product, Canada will benefit because this technology supports transition to a low-carbon economy
