Résumé

The fuel cells are one of the most promising distributed generation systems, thanks to their high operating efficiency, high reliability, and the generation of clean energy (the unique by-products are water and heat) as well as their suitability for use in a wide range of applications. There exist many different types of fuel cells (FC), being the Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell the most important among them in commercial and residential applications because of its low operating temperature, high power density and quick start up. When a FC is used in a microgrid, an electrolyser is also used in order to generate hydrogen when the generated power is greater than the power demand; this hydrogen can be used by the FC when the demand is higher than the power production. In order to be able to introduce this system into a microgrid, the first step is to assess the dynamic model of both systems to analyse the effect of this elements into the microgrid using simulations. The objective of the present work has been to obtain a simple linearized representation of boath PEMFC and PEM electrolyser commercial units. The models have been validated using measurements of the real systems. Using those dynamic models, some simulations have been carried out to analyse the effect of both systems inside a simple microgrid.
