Abstract

In this section, some case studies are presented to analyze the performance of some solar hydrogen production systems on the basis of their exergy and energy efficiencies, sustainability, and environmental impact. The section is subdivided into three parts: first, exergy and energy analysis; second, the sustainability of different systems; and third, the environmental impact of a natural gas-based hydrogen production system.
