Abstract

The results from computer simulation of an integrated renewable hydrogen energy system with daily and seasonal energy storage are reported in this paper. The main components of the energy system are a photovoltaic array, PEM electrolyzer, PEM fuel cell, battery, pressurized hydrogen storage unit, controller, and electric load. The modeling was performed using modified TRNSYS simulation software. System size, performance, and cost trade-offs were analyzed by simulating two short-term energy storage scenarios: one with a large battery storage capacity (approximately one day) and one with a much smaller capacity (two hours). Results show that a system with a small battery storage capacity is more desirable in the interest of system renewability, however it is more capital cost intensive.
