Solar Hydrogen Hybrid System (semester?), IPRO 301: Solar Hydrogen Hybrid System IPRO 301 Poster F04

The photovoltaic/hydrogen hybrid energy system IPRO was started eight years ago. A group of students with their faculty advisor began a semester to investigate the use of solar energy to power an electric sign. Since that time, a significant amount of progress has been made. The project progressed from the design phase to the laboratory phase. Once functioning, it was transferred to the roof of the Co-Gen plant on the IIT main campus. During this phase of the project, Phase I, a photovoltaic system was set up that included several solar panels on the roof. Also, a large LED sign was installed on the roof. An array of power management devices were set up at the project site inside the Co-Gen plant. Phase II of the project was planned in order to incorporate an electrolyzer and fuel cell as an energy back up system in conjunction with the PV system. Although these components exist at the work site, they are not integrated into the complete system and are merely there to demonstrate using hydrogen to power an electric load.Deliverables for IPRO 301: Solar Hydrogen Hybrid System for the Fall 2004 semeste

Solar/Wind Hydrogen Fueling Station at IIT (semester?), IPRO 304B

The objective of this project is to design a renewably powered hydrogen fuelling station at IIT to be part of the Illinois Hydrogen Highway. Based on past recommendations a project site will be selected for the fuelling station. This site will also include a wind turbine and solar panel array to capture renewable energy. The principles of process design will be used to layout hydrogen production, storage, and implementation of renewable energy technologies. The stations will meet all local codes for hydrogen storage, production, and usage. This station will be designed in conjunction with the House of the Future, which is part of IIT’s Sustainable Village.Deliverables for IPRO 304B: Solar/Wind Hydrogen Fueling Station at IIT for the Spring 2005 semeste
