Abstract: Systems and methods for providing power to one or more loads on an aircraft are provided. A power system for an aircraft can include a first fuel cell configured to provide base power to one or more loads on the aircraft. The power system can further include a second fuel cell configured to provide peak power to the one or more loads on the aircraft. The peak power can be a power exceeding the base power. The power system can further include an energy storage device configured to provide transient power to the one or more loads on the aircraft. The transient power can be a power exceeding the peak power. The power system can further include a controller configured to control delivery of power from the first fuel cell, the second fuel cell, and the energy storage device to the one or more loads on the aircraft.

Abstract: A method for maintaining a power source can include selecting, by a controller module, a rechargeable power storage device from a set of power storage devices arranged to selectively provide a summated output of the power source, and selectively enabling the selected power storage device to discharge its stored power at the output of the power source. The controller module can compare a sensed voltage of the selected power storage device with a minimum voltage threshold.
