Abstract

Due to the intermittency of renewable energy and its dependence on climatic conditions, it is necessary to store the energy produced, since it is clean and having a big calorific value. Hydrogen is the better energy carrier at this moment. This work deals with the production of solar hydrogen by water electrolysis. The energy for the dissociation of water is supplied by a photovoltaic (PV) system. The operation of the PV system, design and study was considered for the region of Tamanrasset in the South of Algeria. The study examined the influence of electrolysis pressure and temperature on the performance of the facility.
