Abstract

The invention relates to an energy device, in particular to a DC-DC converter and SPE electrolytic cell coupling device and method. The coupling device relates to a DC-DC converter, the DC voltage output by a photovoltaic module is connected to the input end of the DC-DC converter for chopper modulation through the DC-DC converter, so that voltage is modulated into the working voltage of an SPE electrolytic cell and the electrolytic cell works at a safe working point, and then the hydrogen production efficiency of the electrolytic cell is improved. By the adoption of the method and device, equipment cost is reduced, the system structure is simplified, and the failure rate is reduced; the DC-DC converter can find the optimal duty ratio (rho) to enable the photovoltaic module to work at the maximum power working point and guarantee that the electrolytic cell works at a safe working point.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an energy device, in particular to a coupling device and a coupling method for a DC-DC converter and an SPE electrolyzer. Background technique [0002] With the deepening of hydrogen energy research and the gradual attention of various countries to the hydrogen energy industry, electrolysis of water hydrogen production technology has been developed rapidly, and now there are three main electrolysis methods: alkaline aqueous solution electrolysis, solid polymer water electrolysis (SPE) and solid oxide water electrolysis. Among them, the solid polymer water electrolysis method is considered to be the most promising electrolysis method, but no matter which method, the current hydrogen production efficiency is low. According to statistics, about 5KW electricity can produce 1m 3 Hydrogen, while consuming about 0.8m 3 Ultra-pure water, while the efficiency of converting hydrogen energy into electrical energy with fuel cells is abou...
