Hydrogen Integration in a Renewable Hybrid Energy System

Abstract

This paper presents a technical analysis of a hybrid renewable energy system combining photovoltaic and wind
energy sources with a hydrogen fuel cell for water pumping applications. The proposed system supplies
electrical power to both an electrolyzer for hydrogen production and a double-star asynchronous motor driving a
centrifugal pump. A detailed sizing of the different subsystems has been carried out to ensure reliable and
efficient operation under varying environmental conditions. The obtained results demonstrate the effectiveness
of integrating fuel cell technology into a renewable hybrid architecture, enabling clean, sustainable, and reliable
energy generation for water pumping systems, particularly in remote and off-grid areas.
