Studies on Hydrogen Production Using Solar Photovoltaic Energy System

Abstract

In this work, an alkaline water electrolyzer cell was designed and constructed to produce hydrogen gas using photovoltaic (PV) module as a source of electric power. The PV module is a mono-crystalline silicon type with maximum output power of 8W. The electrolyzer cell is a rectangular container and is made from Acrylic material. Two electrodes are used as a cathode and anode, which are partially immersed in the alkaline solution.
