    Modeling and Simulation of a Hybrid Photovoltaic (pv) Module-Electrolyzer Fuel Cell System for Micro-Cogeneration Applications
    (Pergamon-elsevier Science Ltd, 2015) Ozgirgin, Ekin; Devrim, Yilser; Albostan, Ayhan
    The rising cost of energy and power, depreciation of natural resources like fossil fuels and the global warming issues have all led the need for developing advanced clean energy systems. Hydrogen, which is clean energy carrier, can be produced by using solar electric energy from photovoltaic (PV) modules for the water electrolysis without emitting carbon dioxide. Modeling of PV module-electrolyzer hydrogen system is important for their planning and control strategies in many applications. In this respect, high-efficiency cogeneration systems for producing both heat and electricity coupled with clean energy sources such as PVs and fuel cells are gaining more attention, due to their advantages in terms of increasing efficiency and power quality, reducing harmful emissions and flexibility of operation. This study describes the analysis of the PV module-fuel cell hybrid system for house-hold micro co-generation applications. The system consists of PV modules, batteries, proton exchange membrane type water electrolyzer and proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC). The excess heat of PEMFC was used to supply hot water and/or heating energy of the house. Electrical energy was stored in the batteries. The analysis of the PV-electrolyzer-PEMFC system can be further used for designing co-generation systems for various application optimizing the PV module, electrolyzer and PEMFC sizes.

    Design and Optimization of Green Hydrogen-Based Hybrid Energy System
    (International Association for Hydrogen Energy, IAHE, 2022) Ceylan,C.; Devrim,Y.
    Hydrogen (H2) is widely used in many industries because it can be used as a chemical raw material with its high mass-energy density and can be converted back into electricity via fuel cells. H2 energy systems seem to be one of the most effective solutions for providing a better environment and sustainability. Green H2, produced by renewable energy-assisted electrolysis without greenhouse gas emissions, has been of great importance in recent years. In this study, a hybrid energy system including Photovoltaic (PV), Wind Turbine (WT), Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC), and electrolyzer is compared for grid-connected and off-grid operating conditions. In the grid-connected system, electricity generated from PV and WT is used directly to meet electricity demand, while excess electricity is used for green H2 production. In the off-grid connected system, electricity generated from PV and WT was used for H2 production. Produced H2 and O2 were used to generate electricity by PEMFC. While 20186 kWh energy & 3273 m3 H2 were generated in an on-grid connected system, 95145 kWh energy & 17942 m3 H2 and 83511 kWh energy & 14370 m3 H2 were generated in two different configurations in the off-grid connected system. The Levelized Cost of Energy (LCOE) for the on-grid connected system and the off-grid system for two different designs were determined as 0.307 $/kWh, 0.341 $/kWh and 0.349 $/kWh, respectively. The hybrid system design was simulated using MATLAB software and it was examined which hybrid energy system configuration would be the most economical to meet the load. © 2022 Proceedings of WHEC 2022 - 23rd World Hydrogen Energy Conference: Bridging Continents by H2.
