Abstract: We designed a hybrid photovoltaic-solid polymer electrolysis system to produce hydrogen from water based on electrolysis process. To convert the output voltage from photovoltaic panel to the voltage of SPE cell we utilize a PWM Buck DC-DC Converter. Function of the PWM Buck DC-DC Converter is to deliver a optimum power that can yield the maximum output of hydrogen. The system consists of a photovoltaic panel as source of electricity, a dc-dc converter and a SPE cell as load, where the SPE cell that can convert water to be hydrogen and oxygen through electrolysis process. The system has been tested and measured the relation between power output of photovoltaic and hydrogen production. The dc-dc converter performance and hydrogen production performance of this method have been evaluated and discussed based on the results of the experiment.

Keywords: hydrogen energy; photovoltaic; solid polymer electrolysis, MPPT, dc-dc converter.
