Abstract
As more countries pursue deep decarbonization strategies, hydrogen will have a critical role to play. This will be particularly so in harder-to-abate sectors, such as steel, chemicals, long-haul transport, shipping and aviation. In this context, hydrogen needs to be low carbon from the outset and ultimately. In recent years, research has been focusing on the development of technologies for green hydrogen production, but the cost of production is a barrier to the uptake of green hydrogen. Among the technologies available or under development, electrolysis from renewable sources is attracting lot of interest. In this scenario, the thesis project, developed in collaboration with Edison S.p.a, is born.
The thesis is divided into two sections: in the first place it is performed an experimental assessment of a pre-commercial device based on AEM technology, located in the laboratory of ‘Officine Edison Torino’; secondly, the modelling and simulation of a 'power -to - hydrogen' system, using the real data of the AEM electrolyzer previously studied, is developed within the MATLAB environment
