Abstract :
This paper presents a new integrated (multiport) DC/DC converter for hydrogen-based energy storages. In comparison with traditional solutions based on individual converters for interfacing of an electrolyser and a fuel cell the proposed topology features reduced energy conversion stages. The paper analyzes and discusses the operating principle of the new converter. Several guidelines are presented for the new converter design. Finally, theoretical background was experimentally verified.
