Abstract
One effective method of decarbonization involves the storage of energy in alternative forms and spaces, including the use of energy vectors such as hydrogen storage systems. Creating hydrogen electrolyzers allows us to assess the electrothermal performance of the electrolyzer stack through a model that accurately describes the detailed electrochemical reactions involved. This model is also instrumental in designing, simulating, and optimizing the performance of hydrogen production systems, providing crucial functional details for component sizing and balance-of-plant considerations. Additionally, it facilitates the development and refinement of an electrolyzer control system suitable for hardware-in-the-loop testing. This chapter presents a contribution by performing technoeconomic studies of hydrogen production systems at the Microgrid Laboratory of the University of Cuenca, utilizing renewable energy source photovoltaics in conjunction with hydrogen electrolyzer models.
