Abstract

The objective of this study is to conduct a technico-economic analysis of hydrogen production from solar energy via the water electrolysis process. To this end, four solar energy technologies were selected namely: fixed PV, 1-axis PV, 2-axis PV, and Stirling dish and the simulation were carried in five different location in Morocco using 3-years average of high accurate meteorological data measured at ground level. The results show that the 2-axis PV is the technology that can produce the highest amount of hydrogen (around 4500 Tons per year), followed by the 1-axis PV, Eurodish and the fixed PV. Also, it was found that the lowest cost can be achieve by the fixed PV (~6 $/Kg), closely followed by the 1-axis PV, the 2-axis PV and finally the Eurodish.
