Systems and methods for generating energy using a hydrogen cycle
Abstract:
Systems and methods for continuously generating electric power using a renewable energy power source to continuously generate electrical energy are disclosed. An illustrative embodiment includes transmitting electrical power from the renewable energy power source to an electrolyzer to produce hydrogen gas, storing the hydrogen gas in a storage facility until production of power from the renewable energy power source drops below a predetermined threshold, and activating a secondary power generation system that converts the stored hydrogen to electrical energy. The stored hydrogen may be converted to electrical energy using a gas turbine generator or a fuel cell. The system further includes a reverse osmosis subsystem for purifying water for use in the electrolyzer and optional systems for providing the purified water to a community and for using the produced electricity to treat waste water to generate treated water that may be purified and supplied to the electrolyzer.
