Abstract: Green Hydrogen is emerging as a viable energy carrier to enable sustainable energy transition for numerous industrial applications. Green hydrogen is produced through the electrolysis of water powered by renewable energy sources such as wind and photovoltaic leading to a low carbon footprint compared to other forms of Hydrogen production. Power electronics plays a critical role in harvesting, adapting and controlling the electrical power fed to electrolyzers. Several system configurations connecting electrolyzers to AC and DC power systems have been proposed, as well as great variety of AC-DC and DC-DC power converter topologies. Both system configurations and converter topologies impact the cost, efficiency and reliability of green hydrogen production and is therefore a hot topic for R&D in the power electronics community and electrolyzer industry. This webinar will provide a brief introduction to green hydrogen, its applications, the economics and electrolyzer technologies, and dive deeper into the power electronics system configurations and power converter circuits, to provide researchers, PhD students and practicing engineers with insights and trends on this emerging technology.
