Abstract

Photovoltaic (PV) power generation coupled with proton exchange membrane (PEM) water electrolysis favors improving the solar energy utilization and producing green hydrogen. But few systems proposed focus on achieving all-day stable hydrogen production, which is important for the future large-scale hydrogen utilization. Herein, a PV-Battery-PEM water electrolysis system for hydrogen production was constructed. An energy management strategy (EMS) was proposed to achieve the goal of all-day stable hydrogen production, improve energy utilization efficiency and reduce light discard rate. The PV power generation system, battery system and PEM electrolyzer for hydrogen production system were first established by Matlab/Simulink platform. Then, the overall PV-Battery-PEM electrolyzer system for hydrogen production was constructed, and the effectiveness of EMS was verified. The energy efficiency of the system under different working conditions with and without battery for energy storage was analyzed. The results show that the proposed energy management strategy can meet the purpose of all-day stable hydrogen production. Under the same working conditions, the energy efficiency of the system with battery for energy storage increases by 2–4% compared with the system without battery for energy storage, which indicates that the addition of energy storage can improve the energy utilization and reduce the light discarding.
