Description

Light splitting photovoltaic photo-thermal combined hydrogen production system and use method thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to a split-beam photovoltaic and photo-thermal combined hydrogen production system and a using method thereof, belongs to the aspect of comprehensive utilization of solar energy and hydrogen energy, and particularly relates to a light-concentrating photovoltaic and photo-thermal combined hydrogen production system and a using method thereof.
Background
Hydrogen energy has been industrially used in many places as an important industrial raw material and a reducing agent of a combustion improver. The method has the advantages that the efficiency is high, the heat value is large, the final product is water, no pollution is caused to the environment, and the method is generally regarded as an important clean energy source. The solar electrolytic hydrogen production converts discontinuous solar energy with low energy density into high-density hydrogen energy which can be continuously stored by the technology of solar photovoltaic power generation and electrolytic hydrogen production. The system input and output are clean energy sources, and a good direction is provided for solving energy and environmental crisis.
However, the solar electrolytic hydrogen production has the problems of more electric energy consumption, higher cost and lower production efficiency. Currently, light gathering technology is generally adopted to reduce cost. However, the improvement of the concentration ratio is limited by the upper limit of the temperature of the photovoltaic module, and the improvement of the concentration ratio enables the temperature of the photovoltaic module to be rapidly increased, so that the electrical output characteristic of the photovoltaic module is reduced, and the overall photoelectric conversion efficiency of the photovoltaic module is reduced. Most of the reasons for this are that the solar cell can only perform photoelectric conversion on visible light, and the heat in most infrared regions greatly increases the temperature of the solar cell panel. In traditional photovoltaic light and heat integrated device, can reduce the temperature of system's panel through the application of cooling medium. However, for water heat exchange, the system is in conflict with the system for obtaining photoelectric efficiency and simultaneously higher water temperature, which causes that the water temperature of hot water is not enough for obtaining better cooling effect.
In addition, in the process of hydrogen production by electrolysis in a PEM electrolyzer, the loss of electric energy is mainly determined by the overpotential of the cathode and anode electrodes and the resistance of the PEM. The increase of the temperature of the electrolyzed water can reduce the electric energy dissipation, thereby improving the efficiency of converting the electric energy into the hydrogen energy. However, a simple increase in the temperature of the electrolysis water requires an additional heating device. External extra external energy consumption is also required.
