Solar-Powered Hydrogen Generation

If hydrogen is produced via solar photovoltaic (PV)-powered water electrolysis, it would be possible, in principle, to provide energy on a global scale, with essentially no greenhouse gas emission and veiy low local pollution. [Pg.129]

Accordingly, the operation of electrolyzers with intermittent sources of solar energy and the various possibilities for matching photovoltaic current with the characteristics of the electrolyzer was one of the recurrent design issues in such projects. Most of the electrolyzers were of the alkaline type and operated at low pressure. [Pg.129]

For the operating voltage at the optimum power point Vp and the Faradaic current for water splitting of /p, the overall solar to hydrogen generation PV electrolysis efficiency is given by... [Pg.245]

Honda has built a solar-powered hydrogen station to refuel its FCX fuel cell fleet. Honda has also been testing a Home Energy Station that extracts hydrogen from natural gas, while generating electricity and hot water for home use. But, natural gas jumped from about 5/thousand cubic feet in 1999 to almost 12 in 2006. [Pg.8]
