The use of solar energy systems to supply power to hydrogen production units can not only suppress and absorb renewable energy, but also achieve the goal of peak shaving and “peak shifting and valley filling” in the power grid .
This article analyzes and summarizes the research results of key technologies for solar hydrogen production, and draws the following conclusions: (1) The solar photovoltaic system provides electricity for the hydrogen production system and generates heat through an electric heater to heat the electrolytic cell.
The solar thermal system provides the required heat for the hydrogen production system. By using the MPPT algorithm and model optimization, the system efficiency can be improved by 16.30%, providing a reference route for the coupling of photovoltaic-photothermal systems with electrolytic cells.
Improving hydrogen production using solar energy involves developing efficient solar thermochemical cycles, such as the copper-chlorine cycle, and integrating them better with solar thermal systems. Advancements in photolysis for direct solar-to-hydrogen conversion and improving the efficiency of water electrolysis with solar power are crucial.
In a study by Y. Chen et al. , a solar-based new energy generation and storage configuration was studied for energy and hydrogen fuel production. For the solar farm, a PTC was used, and the useful heat from the PTC powered the organic Rankine cycle (ORC), generating electricity.
Advancements in photolysis for direct solar-to-hydrogen conversion and improving the efficiency of water electrolysis with solar power are crucial. Comprehensive economic and environmental analyses are essential to support the adoption and scalability of these solar-based hydrogen production technologies.
