“…For the proposed method and the specific CPV system developed, a patent application has been filed in Italy. A preliminary analytical study, considering a residential utility, has been also performed in order to understand the energetic and economic performance of the system [33]. The analysis indicates that the maximum sustainable capital cost of the system ranges between 30,000 euros and 45,000 euros depending on the years which are considered for the return of the investment (10 or 20 years respectively).…”

This study represents a thermodynamic evaluation and carbon footprint analysis of the application of hydrogen‐based energy storage systems in residential buildings. In the system model, buildings are equipped with photovoltaic (PV) modules and a hydrogen storage system to conserve excess PV electricity from times with high solar irradiation to times with low solar irradiation. Short‐term storages enable a degree of self‐sufficiency of approximately 60 % for a single‐family house (SFH) [multifamily house (MFH): 38 %]. Emissions can be reduced by 40 % (SFH) (MFH: 30 %) compared to households without PV modules. These results are almost independent of the applied storage technology. For seasonal storage, the degree of self‐sufficiency ranges between 57 and 83 % (SFH). The emission reductions highly depend on the storage technology, as emissions caused by manufacturing the storage dominate the emission balance. Compressed gas or liquid organic hydrogen carriers are the best options, enabling emission reductions of 40 %.
