Abstract

The development of hydrogen generator by using water electrolysis is beneficial in term of clean environmental and renewable energy source. The hydrogen generator is uses to produce hydrogen and uses hydrogen to produce electricity. Therefore, producing renewable energy from hydrogen is very interesting. Hydrogen generator is a well-developed system consists of electrolyser and fuel cell. Electrolyser will be used to produce hydrogen while fuel cell is used to produce electricity. Though there are many electrolysers available, electrolysis of water will be used as the process does not emit harm gasses. Fuel cell used in this project is Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell(PEMFC). The fuel cell is most suitable for small application. The objective of this project was to identify how hydrogen provides electricity and produce hydrogen by water electrolysis. Second objective is to build a system which use hydrogen as source of energy. Scopes of this project only focus on the system which is hydrogen generator. The project also includes natural source which is water. Future studies will focus on the storage of the hydrogen. This work increases our understanding of energy storage in order to produce backup energy for future application.
