Experience in the design, sizing, economics, and implementation of autonomous wind-powered hydrogen production systems

摘要: Abstract While much research effort has concentrated on utilising solar photovoltaics to generate hydrogen via electrolysis, the possibility of using wind power received little attention. This paper summarises results from a recent EC-funded project demonstrate practicality such system and identify possible drawbacks or areas requiring further development. Specifically, examined effects fluctuating supplies electrolyser operation modification turbine smooth output, assessed sizing economics wind-hydrogen production plant, resulted in construction demonstration plant at ENEA’s Casaccia Research Centre Italy.
