“…This material, apparently some kind of carbon nanotubes or carbon whiskers is currently being researched in several laboratories. The best results achieved with carbon nanotubes to date confirmed by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory is hydrogen storage density corresponding to about 10% of the nanotube weight [3].…”

Abstract. Renewable energy sources have attracted a lot of research interest in the past decade. Among these, solar energy is regarded as one of the promising energy sources and has been deployed worldwide with the installed capacity continually increasing. Solar-hydrogen systems have been under research for more than two decades. In such system, maximum power point tracking (MPPT) plays an important role to deliver maximum power from solar panels to the electrolyser. In this paper, two simple but effective MPPT methods are developed and evaluated. Differed from most of the existing methods, these methods are only reliant on a single current sensor input to locate the maximum power point of the solar panel.

“…Then the objectives of SAPHYS (Stand Alone Hydrogen Project) project were to assess the efficiency of hydrogen used as a storage mean for solar electric energy, and to design and test a stand-alone system. One of the most impressive projects is the PHOEBUS project (electrical energy used to supply a part of the Central Library in Forschungszentrum Jülich, Germany) which was carried out from 1993 to 2003 [12][13][14]. This project was devoted to stationary and stand-alone applications.…”

“…A fully description of the batteries management will be reported in a future paper. In the present paper, batteries are not used as means of storage (in opposition with other projects where batteries are considered like a short-term energy storage [10,11,13,14]), but they must be sized to smooth the electrical power. Thus, for the proposed project, hydrogen is used as means of short and long-term storage too.…”

This paper concerns the impacts of the meteorological data, the choice of the load profile, and the time simulation (1 to 11 years) on the energy flows and on the H 2 /O 2 /H 2 O storage sizing in a PV/FC/EL hybrid system (PEPITE project). The simulations were computed with the ORIENTE software. 4 load profiles have been investigated (3 diurnal and 1 nocturnal) with an identical daily consumption (26 kWh).According to load profiles, the gap observed between the most favorable and the most disadvantageous years induces H 2 storage variations rates between 45.5 % and 55.3 %. Furthermore, if we compare the most penalizing meteorological year with the sizing when we simulate several successive years, we also obtain variation rates ranges from 24.4 to 37.9 % for the 3 diurnal profiles. The nocturnal profile presents specific results because it is unsustainable. The main conclusion of this work is the great importance to consider several consecutive years of tilted irradiation data, 7 in our case, to size the H 2 /O 2 /H 2 O storages.
