SOLAR ENERGY SOURCING POWER SUPPLY SYSTEM Russian patent published in 2009 - IPC H01L31/58 H01M16/00 

FIELD: electricity.

SUBSTANCE: proposed solar energy sourcing power supply system consists of solar cell battery, electrolyte feed unit, electrolyte recirculation unit, hydrogen recirculation unit, fuel cell, heater unit and energy controller. Electric energy production is due primarily to actuation of the electrolyte feed device that injects electrolyte into the solar cell battery. The electrolyte is a mixture of water and a photocatalyst. The solar cell battery produces luminous or thermal energy for electric power generation. Water steam and gaseous hydrogen are generated and circulated through the electrolyte recirculation unit and the hydrogen recirculation unit. In case of light and/or water unavailability continuity of the electric power generation process is enabled due to the recycling hydrogen being fed into the fuel cell and the heater unit supplying the solar cell battery with the thermal energy required. Electric current produced by the solar cell battery and the fuel element is regulated via the energy controller to provide for it complying with the electrical energy generation specifications and render it fit for the end usage intended.

EFFECT: provision for uninterrupted round-the-clock power supply.
