abstract = {The Horizon 2020 project PECSYS aims to build a large area
demonstrator for hydrogen production from solar energy via
integrated photovoltaic (PV) and electrolysis systems of
different types. In this study, Si- and CIGS-based
photovoltaics are developed together with three different
electrolyzer systems for use in the corresponding integrated
devices. The systems are experimentally evaluated and a
general model is developed to investigate the hydrogen yield
under real climatic conditions for various thin film and
silicon PV technologies and electrolyser combinations. PV
characteristics using a Si heterojunction (SHJ), thin film
CuInxGa1−xSe2, crystalline Si with passivated emitter rear
totally diffused and thin film Si are used together with
temperature dependent catalyst load curves from both acidic
and alkaline approaches. Electrolysis data were collected
from (i) a Pt–IrO2-based acidic electrolysis system, and
(ii) NiMoW–NiO-based and (iii) Pt–Ni foam-based alkaline
electrolysis systems. The calculations were performed for
mid-European climate data from Jülich, Germany, which will
be the installation site. The best systems show an
electricity-to-hydrogen conversion efficiency of $74\%$ and
over $12\%$ solar-to-hydrogen (STH) efficiencies using both
acidic and alkaline approaches and are validated with a
smaller lab scale prototype. The results show that the lower
power delivered by all the PV technologies under low
irradiation is balanced by the lower demand for
overpotentials for all the electrolysis approaches at these
currents, with more or less retained STH efficiency over the
full year if the catalyst area is the same as the PV area
for the alkaline approach. The total yield of hydrogen,
however, follows the irradiance, where a yearly hydrogen
production of over 35 kg can be achieved for a 10 m2
integrated PV–electrolysis system for several of the PV
and electrolyser combinations that also allow a significant
(100-fold) reduction in necessary electrolyser area for the
acidic approach. Measuring the catalyst systems under
intermittent and ramping conditions with different
temperatures, a $5\%$ lowering of the yearly hydrogen yield
is extracted for some of the catalyst systems while the
Pt–Ni foam-based alkaline system showed unaffected or even
slightly increased yearly yield under the same conditions.},
