This paper explores the operational characteristics of a DC islanded microgrid engineered to produce green hydrogen, utilizing power sourced from a solar array complemented by an energy storage system. The model simulates a one-week evaluation period, incorporating comprehensive analyses of electrical, thermal liquid, and thermal gas domains. By examining the interactions between the solar array, energy storage, and electrolyzer, the study provides a detailed assessment of system performance under varying conditions. Key metrics such as hydrogen production rates, energy efficiency, and thermal management are evaluated to identify optimal operational strategies. The insights gained from this study aim to enhance the efficiency and reliability of renewable energy systems, offering practical solutions for improving the stability and sustainability of green hydrogen production. The findings contribute to advancing the integration of renewable energy sources in microgrid configurations, promoting a more sustainable energy future.
