Abstract

The hydrogen production technology by wind power is an effective mean to improve the utilization of wind energy and alleviate the problem of wind power curtailment. First, the basic principles and technical characteristics of the hydrogen production technology by wind power are briefly introduced. Then the history of the hydrogen production technology is reviewed, and on this basis, the hydrogen production system by wind power is elaborated in detail. In addition, the prospect of the application of the hydrogen production technology by wind power is analyzed and discussed. In the end, the key technology of the hydrogen production by wind power and the problems to be solved are comprehensively reviewed. The development of hydrogen production technology by wind power is analyzed from many aspects, which provides reference for future development of hydrogen production technology by wind power.

Summary

Introduction

The hydrogen production system by wind power will greatly promote the rapid development of the vehicle by hydrogen fuel cell (Cao and Zhang, 2017). Basic principle and technical characteristics of hydrogen production by wind power The hydrogen production technology by wind power is a new environmental protection technology, which is directly applied to electrolysis water to produce hydrogen by generating electricity through wind turbines. The hydrogen production technology by wind power is considered as a “clean and efficient mode of energy use.” This mode is used to generate hydrogen by electrolysis which cannot be absorbed by the power grid or to generate hydrogen directly by using the electricity generated by non-grid-connected wind power. Hydrogen production technology by wind power system is mainly composed of wind turbine, water electrolysis device, hydrogen storage device, fuel cell, power grid, and so on (Valverdeisorna et al, 2016).
