Abstract

The authors report the results obtained from the simulation of a PV-hydrogen-fuel-cell (PVHFC) hybrid system for different locations in Mexico. The hybrid system consists of photovoltaic arrays coupled with an electrolyzer to produce hydrogen, a fuel cell which converts chemical energy (H 2) to electricity, a hydrogen storage, a battery storage system, and the load. In this kind of system, all components can be connected electrically in parallel. The voltage of the PV arrays the fuel cell must be high enough to charge the battery, and the voltage of the electrolyzer must be low enough for the battery to power it during periods of low insolation. The simulation is based on the electrical component models and variable insolation data depending on the location.
