Ref. Objectives Program/device used/ method Important conclusions
[6] Design and modeling of a hybrid system (PV/grid) that powers an electrolyzer that generates clean hydrogen and powered a DC load. MATLAB/ power management control Development of the maximization of the PV modules’ power, securing the regular supply of the load, and optimizing the creation of hydrogen.
[14] Development of a model of an effective hybrid system made up of PV, WT, and FC components for the Adrar site. FORTRAN language According to this study, the PV/Wind/FC system is the best choice for the Adrar site.
[9] Designed and controlled techniques of a PV/FC microgrid hybrid system to handle the electrical demands of 150 homes in Sharjah. Power management system (PMS) The findings demonstrate that the PV/FC/Electrolyzer/Inverter system is capable of supplying the daily electrical needs of the 150 homes in the residential community that was chosen.
[11] Determining the best configuration for an off-grid application involving a WT, a PEMFC, an AEL, a battery, and a supercapacitor banking. Non-dominated Sorting Genetic II (NSGA-II) algorithm In regions with significant wind potential, the suggested structure would be economical. However, the incorporation of a renewable source like PV should be looked into in places with poor wind potential.
[5] Investigating a general approach to deciding the capacity configuration and power reallocation for a grid-connected PV system integrated hydrogen generation system. Monitoring inverter output and experimental data. The grid connection configuration and hydrogen production status affect the best reallocation of PV-hydrogen power; and a large-scale PV system integrated with a hydrogen system can improve power utilization, economic benefits, and emissions
[8] Controlling microgrid that includes WT/FC units that supply both dynamic and static loads. Control algorithm using the Mine Blast Algorithm (MBA) and MATLAB As a result, when the wind speed is low, the FC feeds the loads like a slave.
[12] Modeled, and experimentally validated the electrical dynamics of the PV/Battery/FC/Electrolyzer. Power management algorithm and experimental study. The experimental findings demonstrate that the control approach employed successfully controls the electrolyzer and FC working patterns while saving the battery bank against excessive use.
[4] Analyzed AEL and PEMEL dynamic behavior for on-grid PV and WT input data sets from the region of northwest Germany. key performance indicators (KPI) like costs and efficiencies. From an economic standpoint, AEL technology is preferred for electrolyzer functioning with a direct renewable electricity source.
[15] Compared the simulation of a PEMEL powered by a horizontal WT and the experimental data of it. MATLAB/ experimental set-up. The results from the simulation low higher than the experimental setup.
[16] Analyzed the performance of a hybrid system that includes WT/PV/Battery/PEMEL. MATLAB software. The energy efficiency of the PEMEL at 35–75°C was found to be 64–70%.
[3] Analyzing the integration of a hydrogen generator with a WT system including sufficient power characteristics Laboratory examination. The hydrogen generator-rated power is equal to the WT-rated power, and it is dependent on the wind speed and the amount of power from the WT which is available.
[17] Comparing the outcomes between a PV-powered PEMEL simulation and its experiment. MATLAB program and experimental test. The maximum power of the PV panel is influenced by the weather. The hydrogen production rate from the simulation is higher than the results from the experiments test.
[2] Development of the sizing of an on-grid HRES that contains PV, electrolyzer, FC, and ST for a university building in the south of Algeria. PSO method/ Homer program The ideal PV system for the chosen structure is the grid. The grid-connected PV-H2 is the optimum option for the building and transportation sector.
Proposed Design and analysis of PV and WT systems to produce hydrogen using a PEMEL and MPPT controller. MATLAB The Power of WT to feed PEMEL is to be approximately two times PEMEL capacity. In addition, the PV system is designed to be equal to PEMEL capacity.
