6 FAQs about [Environmental Assessment of Hydrogen Production by Solar Photovoltaic Power Generation]

Can solar PV produce hydrogen?

Hydrogen production via water electrolysis using solar PV electricity might result in substantial emissions in the short term—due to current PV wafer production in China with fossil energy—if the capacity factor of the solar PV system is low (resulting up to 5.6 kgCO 2 -eq. kg −1 H 2).

Can a photovoltaic power station produce green hydrogen?

However, the majority of hydrogen production today relies on fossil fuels (96%), with only a small fraction (4%) being produced through water electrolysis. Even though there have been many studies on climate change mitigation with a focus on Africa, a green hydrogen production from a photovoltaic power station approach has not been reported.

Can solar energy be used to produce hydrogen?

Using solar energy to produce hydrogen can greatly reduce the greenhouse gas emissions and produce ‘Green Hydrogen'. Previous studies reported that LCA (Life Cycle Assessment) can be a good evaluation method to analyze different hydrogen production process.

Can Africa generate clean hydrogen from photovoltaic power output?

This study focuses on the African green hydrogen production industry, utilizing Nigeria as a case study to explore the feasibility of generating clean hydrogen vectors from a percentage of photovoltaic power output in various regions of the country through stand-alone solar grid electrification projects.

Why is hydrogen not included in energy system analysis & assessment models?

Its historically high production cost and sluggish industrial response to climate science have led to hydrogen being largely absent from energy system analysis and integrated assessment models (IAM) until now [ 4 ].

Can battery-assisted hydrogen production reduce solar irradiation instability?

This study proposes an innovative energy management strategy that ensures a stable hydrogen production rate, even with fluctuating solar irradiation. By integrating battery-assisted hydrogen production, this approach allows for decentralized, grid-independent renewable energy systems, mitigating instability from PV intermittency.
