1Reliability
If the electrolysis station rectifies voltage from the alternating current grid, then direct current power for electrolysis is obtained, but fluctuations in renewable energy power output cause unbalanced power and oscillations in the alternating current grid
Solution Approach 1:
The control device detects the voltage amplitude at the alternating current side of the electrolysis rectification power supply and uses this feedback information to adjust the output parameters of the rectification power supply. This closed-loop feedback mechanism enables the system to respond to voltage fluctuations and maintain power balance, preventing oscillations in the alternating current grid while ensuring stable electrolysis operation.
Solution Approach 2:
The control device dynamically adjusts the output parameters (such as output power, current, or voltage) of the electrolysis rectification power supply based on the detected voltage amplitude. By changing these operating parameters in response to grid conditions, the system maintains power balance and stability despite fluctuations in renewable energy input.
2Stability of the object's composition
If the output parameter of the electrolysis rectification power supply is adjusted to match voltage amplitude, then power balance is achieved, but system complexity increases due to control mechanisms
Solution Approach 1:
The electrolysis rectification power supply system performs self-adjustment by automatically detecting its own operating conditions (voltage amplitude) and autonomously modifying its output parameters accordingly. This self-service capability eliminates the need for complex external control systems, achieving power balance through the system's inherent control functions while minimizing added complexity.
