AC/DC CONVERTER FOR HYDROGEN PRODUCTION
ELECTRIC POWER GENERATOR
Development of a self-contained, transportable hydrogen production station powered by a green energy source.
Hydrogen refueling infrastructures are developing very slowly, and a self-contained, transportable solution will help to kick-start the process of deploying green hydrogen as a zero-emission fuel.
The flexibility of the EFS teams has enabled an initial working prototype to be validated in a very short space of time.
IN THE BEGINNING
A company designing small autonomous hydrogen stations asked us to produce a prototype of AC-DC and DC-DC converters.
CONTEXT
Rapid response for hydrogen refueling of last-mile mobility and captive vehicle fleets.
SOLUTION
Integration of off-the-shelf converters to meet time constraints and enable the concept to be validated in a short time-frame.
AC/DC CONVERTER FOR GREEN ENERGY
Customer problem
A company designing small autonomous hydrogen stations asked us to produce a prototype to demonstrate the possibility of generating hydrogen from green energy (wind or solar).
EFS response
EFS is designing a 100 kW AC/DC (400 V 3-phase to 1000 VDC) and 100 kW DC-DC (1000 V DC to 100 V, 1000 A DC) electrical power generator for a distribution cabinet.
The 1000 V DC voltage is the input for green energy (wind power or photovoltaic panels).
- The power generator integrates the power converters and an electrical distribution section to supply an electrolyzer to produce hydrogen.
- The distribution cabinet, in addition to the power generator, incorporates all the protection for the compressors and the water treatment circuit.
Advantages of the solution
- Contributing to the energy transition
- Hydrogen project.
