A realistic system of direct coupling of photovoltaic power generation to electrolytic water for hydrogen production was established and the operational results proved the practicality of the system (Clarke et al., 2009).
An increase in temperature augments hydrogen production and thermodynamic efficiency. This study introduces a novel solar-powered concentrating photovoltaic-thermal power generator-solid oxide electrolysis cell system designed to enhance hydrogen production efficiency by optimizing both electrical and thermal energy utilization.
The PV power generation and hydrogen production hybrid energy storage system includes PV power generation system, electrolytic water hydrogen production, hydrogen storage tank, energy storage system, and other subsystems. The system structure diagram is shown in Figure 1.
A common approach involves coupling solar power generation with hydrogen production through water electrolysis . In this method, photovoltaic panels convert solar radiation into electrical energy, which is then utilized to electrolyze water into hydrogen and oxygen.
Solar hydrogen production devices have demonstrated promising performance at the lab scale, but there are few large-scale on-sun demonstrations. Here the authors present a thermally integrated kilowatt-scale pilot plant, tested under real-world conditions, for the co-generation of hydrogen and heat.
The main components that constitute these systems include solar cell arrays, battery packs, etc. Photovoltaic power generation technology has the characteristics of a simple structure and noise-free operation, making it a clean, safe, and renewable energy technology .
