The production of clean hydrogen from solar energy is no longer just theory – with the New Energy Lab of the EDIH Zagore we demonstrate how the energy transition can happen in practice. Through the unique “Test Before Invest” opportunity, we offer small and medium-sized enterprises access to a platform for learning and experimenting with technologies from the future.
In a series of experiments on solar energy and hydrogen, participants can explore the full cycle of production and storage:
- Production of electricity by photovoltaics – in different climates, inclinations and orientations;
- Study of solar energy conversion efficiency and losses;
- Measuring the maximum power point (MPP) and how it is affected by shading and temperature;
- Electrolysis of water using solar energy – real-time hydrogen production;
- Hydrogen storage in metal hydride containers;
- Using a fuel cell to convert hydrogen back into electricity.
The integration of solar to hydrogen is a key process for future zero-emission energy systems. Through this process:
- Autonomy and flexibility of energy sources;
- Minimize transmission and storage losses;
- Overcoming the intermittency of renewables.
