A Small-Scale Wind-to-Hydrogen System for Island Applications

摘要

The goal of this study is to evaluate feasibility of micro (under 1 kW) wind turbines combined with reversible PEM fuel cell for energy storage in island applications, focusing on sparsely populated regions, such as the Arctic. HOMER Energy Microgrid Power Design software will be used to perform simulations and size the system components (fuel cell stack, compressor, generator etc.). Statistical data of wind velocity and energy consumption on Grimsey island in Iceland will be used as a case study.
