Hydrogen production through renewable energy sources appeared in the early 90's with the result that continuous technological development led to a variety of experimental tests in the last decade. More specifically, hydrogen production technology is based on the installation of an electrolysis unit that operates through the excess energy produced by renewable energy sources.Thus, the hydrogen gas that the electrolyte now produces can be stored in conventional pressure tanks while we must not forget that the importance of hydrogen is twofold as it is a means of long-term storage of renewable energy while it is itself a renewable energy carrier as it can be used in fuel cells for the production of electric power.More specifically, in the present work will be carried out an energy production system consisting of photovoltaic arrays and wind turbines in the prefecture of Chania and Rethimno in order to meet the electricity load needs of the areas, the production and storage of hydrogen.Finally, the above will be implemented with the assistance of HOMER software (Hybrid Optimization Model for Electric Renewables) , a software that determines the economic viability of a hybrid energy system, improves installation design and allows users to understand how hybrid renewable energy systems actually work.
