The subject of the invention relates to an
electric energy conversion unit, especially for the use of
electricity with time-varying power for the production of
hydrogen gas, which has a current conducting piece (2) provided with an input gate (3) that may be connected to the electrical
energy supply unit (4), at least one
hydrogen gas production
subunit (20) connected to the current conducting piece (2), and at least one
hydrogen gas
storage tank (30) connected to the hydrogen gas production
subunit (20), where the hydrogen gas production
subunit (20) has an electrolysing
cell (21), and the gas output (21a) of the electrolysing
cell (21) is connected to the input
pipe (31)of the hydrogen gas
storage tank (30), and the hydrogen gas
storage tank (30) is provided with an unloading
pipe (32). It is characteristic of the invention that an
electric current regulation subunit (10) is fitted between the input gate (3) of the current conducting piece (2) and the hydrogen gas production subunit (20), where the
electric current regulation subunit (10) has at least one
transformer (11), a
rectifier device (12) and a current intensity regulation device (13), and the current intensity regulation device (13) is interposed between the input gate (3) of the current conducting piece (2) and the input (11a) of the
transformer (11), or between the output (11) of the
transformer (11) and the input (12a) of the
rectifier device (12), or between two transformers (11) in the case of several transformers (11) into the current conducting piece (2).
