Method for controlling an electrolysis system taking into account the temperature of the electrolyser modules of the said electrolysis system

Abstract

The method for controlling an electrolysis system (1) which comprises a plurality of electrolyser modules (2) and is designed to cooperate with a system (3) for supplying electric energy which uses an intermittent energy source comprises: a step (E1) of determining an available electric power which the electric energy supply system (3) can provide; a step (E2) of evaluating a suitable number Ne of electrolyser modules (2) to be used according to the available electric power; a step (E3) of selecting electrolyser modules (2) to be supplied electrically, taking into account the number evaluated Nc; a step (E4) of determining the temperature of each electrolyser module selected; and a step (E5) of supplying electrically the selected electrolyser modules (2) by the electric energy supply system according to a distribution of the available electric power depending on the temperatures determined (E4) of each of the electrolyser modules selected.
