Literature review based control strategies of electrolyzers systems

This paper proposes a literature review based control strategies of electrolyzer systems. Electrolyzers play an essential role in hydrogen production from electricity to obtain a clean and versatile energy resource. In this process, the power electronics converters play a crucial role in the efficient conversion of electrical energy, while controls ensure that the electrolyzer operates at optimum efficiency. Recent advances technologies have enabled to develop of converters that are more compact, efficient and compatible with renewable energies. Advanced control strategies, such as predictive based control, fuzzy based control, neural networks-based control, etc., have also been analyzed. An optimal control strategy is necessary to perform the electrolyzer operating in a real system, where the dynamic current response and voltage stability are essential. These advances in power electronics and control strategies not only help to optimize hydrogen production, but also facilitate its integration into electricity grids, thereby contributing to the transition to a sustainable hydrogen economy. This review highlights current challenges and future opportunities for the efficient integration electrolyzer systems in energy transition using sustainable hydrogen solution.
