Hydrogen, as a form of storage for the excess energy from renewable sources, is a technically and economically viable option. However, the technology is not mature enough to compete with the other renewable energy possibilities. In this thesis, a study based on coupling two 330 kW wind-turbines with an NELP. 40 electrolyzer this connection should improve the utilization of wind power. In this thesis are two options of energy utilization. The energy produced by the wind-turbine is stored in the form, of hydrogen and is then delivered for consumption at variable power through a fuel cell, second option is use of produced hydrogen as alternative fuel for cars. This study is a general introduction for the wind energy system with hydrogen storage. Future studies should be more complex and detailed in order to understand and model the system with greater accuracy and to increase the possibility for the utilization of wind energy to generate hydrogen. This would enhance wind power competitiveness and sustain the continuously changing world energy demands.
