I did some of my own investigation and this is what I concluded:
1. you can generate 1 MW over 7 days but you need to provide 2 liters of water per hr. or 2 x 168hrs = 336 liters of water.
2. the best electrical electrolyses processes require more energy to produce the hydrogen (about 70% efficiency)
3. is it electricity which is used to breakdown the water?????
4. calculations
1 kg of hydrogen (which has a specific energy of 143 MJ/kg or about 40 kWh/kg)
Based on the atomic properties of water, 1 kg of hydrogen gas requires about 2.4 gallons of water as feedstock
2.4 gallons = 9.1 liters
1 Mega Watt of energy over 7 days for 2 liters of water?
2 liters of water will yield (1 kg x 2/9.1) = 0.22 kg of hydrogen
0.22 kg of hydrogen will yield (0.22kg x 40 kWh/kg) = 8.79 kWh
MJ - 143 x 8.79/40 = 31.81 MJ
7 days is 168 hrs
7 days of energy yields 8.79 kWh or 1.4 Mega Watt for the total 7 days 100% efficiency
Yes you can get 1MW of power over 7 days at a rate of 8.79 kWh using 2 liters/hr of water to produce 0.22 kg of Hydrogen per hr
