The hybridized energy storage consists of two basic energy storages: one with high specific energy and the other with high specific power. This is then stored as compressed gas or liquid. Afterwards electricity can be generated from hydrogen in a fuel cell when needed. In a hybrid energy storage system, a battery is integrated with hydrogen. . In literature, different architectures are chosen to realize the HESSs, and they are based on the principal aim of the HESSs employment. In this paper, the most used HESS topologies are presented, with particular attention to the active, passive and semiactive topologies, highlighting their. . Energy storages are defined as the devices that store energy, deliver energy outside (discharge), and accept energy from outside (charge).
