Principle

The use of hydrogen and oxygen for energy storage only makes sense when it functions with the lowest possible losses.

In this experiment, an examination is to be made on the efficiency of an electrolyser - fuel cell system and consequently on the total efficiency of the chain from generation to usage of the hydrogen and oxygen.

Benefits

  • Experiment is part of a complete solution set with a total of 10 experiments for Renewable Energy fuel-cell technology
  • The power supply used is versatile and is particularly suitable for pupil tests for all ages
  • Doubled learning success: Electric circuit diagram on top, real components can be seen at the bottom

Tasks
