因應全球暖化及石油短缺局勢,各國致力發展潔淨次世代能源。氫氣具有來源豐富、應用層面廣、效率高和低污染等優點,故可成為新一代綠色能源。目前氫氣來源大多採用化石燃料為原料,此製程方法在未來氫經濟體系終將不適用,因而需發展低污染產氫製程。現今世界各國積極研究太陽能、風力、海洋能及生質能等潔淨再生能源製氫,以PV太陽能電池與(或)風力機作為綠色電力來源結合電解裝置來製得高純氫氣最受注目。 因此本論文藉由HOMER軟體來模擬研究台灣台中梧棲、恆春和蘭嶼離島等地區之PV太陽能電池與風力機結合質子交換膜PEM電解裝置組成之混元式再生能源製氫系統,以獲得上述地區之製氫潛力,及計算可節約碳排放量;最後將製得氫氣應用於燃料電池車中,得知車運行公里數與減碳量,以作為未來設置再生能源製氫系統之參考依據。
In response to global warming and crude oil shortage, countries over the world are looking for next generation sources of green energy. Application on hydrogen seems to be the best choice for green energy since it has characteristics of rich source, extensive application, high efficiency, and nearly no pollution. Currently, production of hydrogen relies on fossil fuel as energy source. Apparently, this process is not suitable for hydrogen energy economy due to high cost and pollution. As a result, development on new production method that generates low pollution is necessary. At present, most countries are developing on sources from sustainable energy such as solar energy, wind power, ocean energy, and bio fuel etc. Among them, photovoltaic and wind power source in combine with PEM(Proton Exchange Membrane) device receives the most attention. This study examines the simulation on the potential of a hybrid PEM application that transforms solar and wind power energy into hydrogen. The simulation takes place in Taichung Wuchi, Hengchun, Lanyu Island at Taiwan and is done by HOMER software. While entering the data into fuel cell vehicle utilization, distance traveled and emission reduced is computed. Finally, this efficiency analysis is a considerable reference for constructing hydrogen production device.
