摘要
The integration of wind and solar energy with green hydrogen technologies represents an innovative approach toward achieving sustainable energy solutions. This review examines state-of-the-art strategies for synthesizing renewable energy sources, aimed at improving the efficiency of hydrogen (H2) generation, storage, and utilization. The complementary characteristics of solar and wind energy, where solar power typically peaks during daylight hours while wind energy becomes more accessible at night or during overcast conditions, facilitate more reliable and stable hydrogen production. Quantitatively, hybrid systems can realize a reduction in the levelized cost of hydrogen (LCOH) ranging from EUR 3.5 to EUR 8.9 per kilogram, thereby maximizing the use of renewable resources but also minimizing the overall H2 production and infrastructure costs. Furthermore, advancements such as enhanced electrolysis technologies, with overall efficiencies rising from 6% in 2008 to over 20% in the near future, illustrate significant progress in this domain. The review also addresses operational challenges, including intermittency and scalability, and introduces system topologies that enhance both efficiency and performance. However, it is essential to consider these challenges carefully, because they can significantly impact the overall effectiveness of hydrogen production systems. By providing a comprehensive assessment of these hybrid systems (which are gaining traction), this study highlights their potential to address the increasing global energy demands. However, it also aims to support the transition toward a carbon-neutral future. This potential is significant, because it aligns with both environmental goals and energy requirements. Although challenges remain, the promise of these systems is evident.
