Hydrogen mini-Factory for domestic purposes (wind version)

The combination of wind energy as a source of production and hydrogen as a carrier and reservoir of energy has been a successful partnership. The unstable nature of wind and the long-term storage capability of hydrogen make them a prosperous pair. Many researches have been done in this field. In most of these researches, the focus has been on the production at the scale of wind farms or on the wind potential of the region. But in this project, the goal was to answer this question: is it possible to meet the energy needs of a household using the combination of wind energy and hydrogen? This project has created a step-by-step algorithm to answer this question. This algorithm starts by modeling the wind speed and finally ends by determining the overall dimensions of the system, including the active surface of the electrolyzer and the surface covered by the turbine. In this way, various components of the mini-Factory, such as electrolyzer, wind turbine, generator, and converter, have been investigated. Finally, an effort was made to select the most optimal operating conditions as well as the appropriate type for each of these components to achieve the expected output.
