Abstract
In this context, this study presents a feasible configuration of a solar-hydrogen integrated microgrid and documents the procedure to characterize the overall efficiency of a laboratory scale test facility. Experimental results highlight that the most significant inefficiencies in the solar to hydrogen conversion process are mainly attributed to the solar to electrical energy conversion process, being responsible for about 89% of losses. The overall laboratory scale solar to hydrogen chain can reach conversion efficiency up to 5.3%.
