The purpose of the energy-technological complex (ETC) is the transformation of primary sun/wind energy into electrical energy as well as sub-products fabrication. The ETC consists of the following constituent elements that are to be characterized by the harmonized parameters: wind power station, photo-voltaic transformer, distiller, fuel cell (produced by ASTRIS ENERGI, INC, Canada), hydrogen and oxygen generator like the electrolyzer and compressed gases storing and supply system (SSS). The hydrogen and oxygen are generated in the electrolyzer and stored in the SSS and then used in fuel cell for quality
electrical energy generation. The ETC output includes desalinated seawater and sea salt as well. The base ETC configuration with power 2x3=6 kW is considered. The operational peculiarities of ETC constituent elements are also considered. The alternative possibility of hydrogen accumulation by the carbon nanostructures (produced by CAR-BOLEX, and ALPHA AESAR) was considered.
The creation and operational demonstration of the autonomous ETC are supported by STCU (Project #UZB-23j) with the collaboration with Nano-Technolo-gy Institute at Texas University and HONEYWELL.
