Özet

The production and use of fuel cells (FCs) with different principles are increasing with the widespread use of hydrogen energy. However, if the electrical parameters and design of the FCs are not made correctly before connecting to the grid, the FCs will produce an output power with high total harmonic distortion (THD). This will negatively affect the FC’s grid and cause more CO2 emissions with lower efficiency. In this study, an FC electrical design was created, and voltage and current THD values of 3.9 and 5.9, respectively, were obtained, which are below the limits determined by EN51600. Thus, CO2 emissions from FCs are reduced.
